  this board is an addiction - but the withdrawal effects are easy to handle with other occupations to keep you busy.

  When I showed up on this forum, one of the first things that was told me was
  "One more thing.......you can be our second granny because a sweetie named "Mouthy" was nominated before you arrived"
  
  Since then I learned that "Mouthy IS the coolest 'gran' in the world"
  and I have to say that she is the onliest Grannie i know of, surfing the net a.s.o. In fact she is doing a lot better then I do.
  
  Mouthy / Grace, I enjoy reading your post.
  thanks and regards,

  you know, that was some good advise: we (at least one large bit for me) eat the cake, and just send him the picture what he missed...

  by Robdar in

  1. social
  2. relationships

  i find myself finally becoming accustomed to the fact that i am single again.

  I am single for 22 years now, after a 5 years wedding.
  
  I was never looking for another partner - but did never exclude the possibility.
  
  But when I want to look, it should be for humor, honesty and warmth.

  well, i had an interesting night on the job.. first, i got off the bus and walked 10 blocks to work.

  i was hurrying to try and beat this rain, but it got me when i was halfway to work.

  i had my raincoat on but it didn't do much for my pants which got soaked wet.

  2. friends

  at least i am giving it a try.. i have had some minor surgery.

  nothing to worry about, but it put me out of physical action for the last two weeks.

  this gave me lots of time to think and browse this forum.

  How Do You Handle Death?

  by minimus in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  for most witnesses, the ressurection hope keeps survivors going.

  i knew of some jw's that were in such denial that they would want to believe that "they're just sleeping but are still alive to jehovah.

  " others would bust themselves "in the work", while others would "mourn as the nations do".

  My own or others ?
  
  The death of my father brought me closer to the JW and after 3 years, I was babtised.
  The death of my mother did the opposite: the service in the Hall was awfully - my family was comparised with the German concentration camps during the worldwar and everyone attending the meeting was chocked hearing that.
  
  Since then I have been 3 times in the Hall - once for an other funeral service and the last time the Memorial - and it has been 8 months since.
  
  I've learnt a lot since and am thinking to write a letter of de-associating.
  I haven't convinced myself that I should do it - I will wait a bit longer I think.
  
  With my own death ? I think (and hope) to the outer world with dignity (for I can't change a bit to it) from the inside scared to pieces.
  
  I am absolutely sure that I don't get a resurrection on earth the way the watchtower is promising - I am not good enough for heaven - so I have to wait till it happens to know (or know nothing at all) what it will be.
