I feel elated - with last semester's results.
by fulltimestudent inin my studies, i've settled into a routine of two units per semester, which gives me time to explore interesting side-roads, away from the assigned readings.
this semester past, i attempted on study unit at macquarie u and one at sydney u.. macquarie results were released last friday, and for that study unit (rome's persian wars) my aggregated mark was 78 and so a distinction.. and, at sydney u, released yesterday, my aggregated mark for, japan in asia from 1840 to today, was 90, which meant a high distinction.. .
i feel so pleased, not only am i acheiving my goal of understanding the historical processes that have formed modern asia, but i am mastering the process of critical thinking that is the basis of modern scholarship.. so for semester 2, i've enrolled in byzantium at macquarie, and which will give me a chance to explore the way the christian church became a theocratic government in the eastern empire's cities.. .

You know wisdom from below I'll bet the GB will be wiping their asses with 100 dollor bills. I still don't know how you can be laid off from a vow of poverty or a religous order.

Thats probably the way they feel or will feel Mary. It must be a shock for them indeed. My late father had Bethel asperations for me and all that. So glad now after all these years I got DF D years ago when I was young.
I agree with Steve 2 well said both of you.

New JW.org video on "helping" prisoners
by cedars inhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a-vjlssg3xi.
you can't help but feel sympathy for these guys.
some of the things they did will have been horrendous, but they are paying their dues to society through their incarceration.. what they don't deserve is to become mentally imprisoned to a damaging cult.. .

Welcome miss Fit. I was never sexually abused but suffered years of beatings at the hands of my father. It seems that's what they do, although I could never figure out why? I know what its like to be young and powerless. Even after many years it still hurts. Now 28 years aprox after I was dfed
I have a great life. I never lifted my hands in anger to my children or wife for that matter and its turned out good so far.
