  The moment was bittersweet for me. I was glad it was finally over for me. If anything I felt bad for my mother who started to cry.

  i've been off for 2 weeeks, and my first shift back is a 1ohr shift on a sunday morning.

  its enough to make me wish i was getting up for a meeting instead!!!

  Right now I am working as a physical therapist in a nursing home. It is not my responsibility, but I find more often that not, I end up taking patients to the bathroom during therapy. I hate wiping someone elses behind. Aside from that its a great job.

  I'm at a loss...dazzzed and confused...

  by Red Witch in

  2. friends

  why is it when so many of you have left the "oh so illusrious" organization, want to have possesion of their publications?

  unless, as far as i can figure, you are still somewhat enthralled, dazzed and confused with what they have to say.

  when i left, so did all their propaganda.

  Red witch I can relate with your views. I don't see the need in holding onto wts pubilcations. I am done debating wts issues with people. Been there and done that, while I was in the org. I am at a different place in my life now. Keep in mind that many people here are also at different points in their lives and may have a specific reasons to hold onto literature. I can respect their viewpoint as well. Take Care

  if you had the power to print millions of watchtowers & awakes and you could see to it that the articles that you wrote got to all the readers, give a sampling of what the articles highlighting "spiritual food" would say.

  I used to leave the in the airplane seat pockets when I would travel. That was like a ritual. I once worked at a correctional facility and I would bring them into the prison library for inmates to read. They were very desperate in general for any out to their situation. Streetwitnessing was a real joke, as I would see about fifty percent of literature dumped on the ground after it was placed.
