I like personal experiences, JWs news ( I just left the organisation ) and anything that I think I might like.

we all know which topics interest us the most, but which subjects bore you the most?
some here love all fluff.
some hate it.some might respond to only intellectual arguments while others may not have the foggiest of what is being debated.....so, what do you tend to skip, here?

do you generally have things made for you, things set and life generally go your way?
or is everything is a battle and a major fight for survival?
just curious.
Moe,
I know life can be a very sad and exhausting battle, so I try to be happy with the simple things I have. I hoard up in my hart moments that I know they soon might be gone: a simple conversation with my old father, my baby's smile, a beautiful sunset, hearing my sons speaking, walking with my husband. I think that happiness is made of small moments and simple things.

i've been meaning to post this but have been busy with the new baby.
it's pretty funny.. background: i'm not df or da but my jw sister who i brought into the religion has shunned me for over a year.
according to her she is disciplining me so i'll go back to the meetings.. a few weeks before i had the baby my family gave me a baby shower.
Blue,
Congratulations on your baby! A new baby in the family is the best.
I have 2 jw sisters on my own and they know everything but we still talk to each other like always. They go to the kh every week because they think the association with the brothers is better than being by themselves. I am sure your sister loves you very much but she is very confused now. I hope that this baby will be the one to get you both together again.

further to isp's recent post, i can confirm that jamie reid of the whitefield, manchester congregation, england has, once again, been making fun of invalids in his congregation.
i spoke face to face with a member of his congregation the other day and he confirmed that the reports are true.. my informant (hereafter known as the "mole") told me that the two brothers elder reid poked fun at are called roy taylor and justin brooks.
roy taylor is said to be devoted to the jws, always out on field service and never misses a meeting.
Hi Dans, One of the things made me leave my Congregation was the lack of love. Too many information, too many dates, too many little books, too many magazines ............ but too little love. ¿dont you agree?

hi friends, .
the 1 year old baby of a very good friend suffered a terrible accident, he fell & broke his skull, fortunately he was operated on successfully.
i had talked to the mother, my friend & a faithfull jw, a lot about the un thing, the child abuse & other things about the borg.
As a mother I can feel what that mother is feeling now....happiness to have her baby in her arms and to know that a loving God would not want an inocent baby to die. Congratulations!!!!

Hello,
After one year of lurking I finally decided to write, introduce myself and tell my short story . After being JW for more than 20 years, one year and 4 months ago, my husband read some news in Internet. It was the UN affair….. I can’t use any more words that have been already used to express what it ment to us to discover what we did. We couldn’t believe it at first so we decided to investigate the whole thing. We tried to discover that “it was a lie” “that could not be true”. Instead, we discovered what everybody knows now…. At first we kept going to the KH but after some months we didn’t want to go any more. Not only because of the UN affair, but because everthing we had discovered after our complete investigation. All my family are JWs and we shared with them and some “good friends” what we had found out. Of course, we lost most of our friends. Some of our friends were disfellowshiped and my husband and I feel that we are being hunted by some elders, even though we are not attending the meetings any more. We know that they think we are apostates (are we?) and all they want is proof to take action. I must confess that I do not want to be DF´ed. I have some real friends and now I know who they are. Some in my family know everything and they feel just like me but others do not, and I don’t want to lose them either. We have children and we love Jehovah and his son and the bible. We keep reading our bible every day as a family and these year for the first time we are going to celebrate the Memorial by ourselves…. The future I can’t tell. However, I feel we did the right thing when we decided to investigate in spite of what we could find out. My screen name “Urpi” means “Dove” in the language of the Inkas (quechua) and my native language is spanish so I apologize for any mistakes. I will keep on lurking and from time to time I will post. Have a nice day you all. Sincerely,
Urpi
