She's shocking us more and more each day V. It's a very nice necklace! I've been looking at them myself, while it is a symbol, it's also a statement and a reminder.

from your fellow Aries, Imanaliento ( wish I could log on using my name)

p.s hope you do well on the exam so you can have a Great Birthday monday.

my parents have finally disowned me.. my dad called yesturday and told me to get the "dogs of my mothers back" about my upcoming wedding.. i told him that i havent put anyone on mum's back and if they are saying it, its because they want to and don't agree with what he and mum are doing.

i said that mum can speak for herself and he said that she and will and the next time you speak to your mother she will tell you that we dont want to ever speak to or see you again...".

at this point in the conversation i hung up the phone in his ear.

(((((((((((((( KELPIE )))))))))))))))))

sorry to hear that, it's so sad that that organization claims to follow Christ and yet can't love another human being who has a different veiw. Family is so important to our Creator, one can only pray for them to have the unconditional love as he does. You have your fiance, and build on that love. best to you.

My mother had a stroke

by acsot in

haven't been on the forum much lately, been running back and forth to the hospital.

she's getting better now and will probably be able to regain use of her arm and leg, but it's been exhausting and nerve-wracking.

i was fortunately there when it happened so got her to the hospital right away.. anybody have experience with this type of thing?

BadJerry

hi Ascot, sorry to hear about your mother.

I just went to www.google.com and typed in stroke victims, hope something there can help you out, In our old neighborhood our neighbors husband had a stroke that left him paralyzed on one side, I never knew he existed for the first 6 months we lived there because he didn't want to go anywhere, not even outside, That is a huge mistake, therapy and socializing would of helped him tremendously.

Your comment on the witnesses not voluntering is so true, even within the congregations it was hard to get anyone to help with those that need it. I recently attended an arranged marriage with a couple from India, and one lady I talked to had just met the bride a week prior, and where did she meet her? Her church organizes help to those who come from another country helping them out anyway they can. How shallow witnesses are to claim they have Love.

we all go through times of stress and sad times.

what is a simple, yet profound saying that you have reminded yourself of to make these troubling times easier?

you don't have to believe in a literal god, just that there are higher thoughts within us that we all are able to draw from.. the one that has worked the best for me is: .

One of my favorites was a bumper sticker saying. Jesus Loves You, it's everybody else that thinks your an asshole.

They were at my door again.

i was doing a little painting at the back of my house and i heard car doors slam.

i peeked around the corner and there the elders were again.. ken p.

BadJerry

You just have to do what you have to. They think they are so righteous it's sometimes not worth getting your blood pressure up over trying to make them take that veil off. They were at my door about a month ago, ( I still can't believe they didn't know it was my house because the driver had helped us put in some of the electrical ) I also didn't feel like talking ( it sort of depends on who it is ) I mailed the WT and AW back with www.silentlambs.org on it.

ps. this was edited to say this is posted from IMANALIENTO, can't log on yet

Congratulations!

MY husband would always argue with an elder when we were first studying about every point, (we should of done our own research) the elder then said " if what I say is 99 % right then the next thing I say would have to be right.

BadJerry would come right back and tell him," yes, BUT if I find the 1 % to be wrong then I have to assume every point after that is wrong and has to be questioned.

We started finding those questionable things early on last year, the way people were treated, the dat-line pedophile story and it just kept snowballing downhill after that. IN good conscience we could no longer be a part of an organization that was so twisted. And DA'd last Aug.

reading Crisis of Conscience and In Search of Christian Freedom by Ray Franz are two highly recommended books for you to look at. You can find them at www.commentarypress.com

Can't stand the weight I've gained on my anti-depressant....

by berylblue in

...i have my first comedy performance saturday, and i'm 15 pounds overweight.

i don't care that i'm still (albeit barely) in the acceptable weight range for my age/height (47/5'1"); i want to be thin again.

short of not eating for a week, does anyone have any suggestions?

BadJerry

i'm doing Atkins, www.atkins.com I've put off doing this one for so long because I've read it harms vital organs, but documents have shown other wise, it's not NO carbs, it's low carbs. Carbs make your system increase your insilin and the excess is stored as fat. they will mention that pharmacutical substances will make it slower to lose.

the first 2 weeks, carb count is 20 gr a day. increased after that.

people with high metabolisms will lose fast with as much as a pound a day. Me i'm a bit slower with 10lbs in a month.
