he said that having a goal is the most important, since we do not want to waste our time and become depressed when going out in the ministry.. and what else could be better than setting a goal to, say, distribute xx number of magazines during that day?!.
in this way we could feel contented and joyful in service.. .
how profound!
During the talk I was so upset I couldn't hide my disgust and kept on sighing. That elder especially talks and sounds intelligent but this time again,
"encouraging" people, mostly adults with that meaningless talk is beyond my comprehension.
"Distribute more magazines, and be happy!!! If you're not happy with that, something is wrong with you." Something like this, right?

That's what he said. How profound! I am so grateful for this timely reminder from the publishing corporation! ;)
"unless we abide by the direction of the governing body, gods own representatives, then we are wicked, and will be part of the destroyed people as described in zephaniah".

There really is no other way to keep my sanity these days but to avoid the meetings as frequently as possible..
Or just browse the internet through my mobile while the guy is delivering a stupid talk for 35 mins.
when i was a wee lad, there was a carnival atmosphere at assemblies as this old footage will show:.

No. It was never fun.
Open-air facility with hard benches that made my butts hurt from sitting the entire day.
you read it here first!.
to all congregations.
re: midweek meetings during visit of circuit overseer .
Lois Lane , love it! :D
yup, the apostate is happy.
i shouldn't be, right, because my life is empty without "jehovah" and the organisation.. but i just got a job at one of the best theme parks in the world, which is so what i want to do, and it's the first permanent job i've had since i lost my government job in 2012!.
the job pays minimum wage but i don't care because working in tourism and entertainment is what i want to do!
Hi Julia. If you don't mind me asking, where is this theme park?
There is a remote chance that I can visit Australia, but I think it is more possible than being able to meet a fellow "apostate" here in the country I live in!
once the spell is broken, one you take a deep fresh breath outisde of the watchtower camp, the amazingly obvious realisation becomes clear.... of course this is a lie, of course this is ridiculous!
you find you have memories of really believing the claims and promises, but it seems like another life, another experience.
it seems so incredibly false once you leave and it is very difficult to belive you even once accepted it!
Thank you, snare&racket. You expressed very well what many of us here may have been feeling for a long time.
did we all notice the way in which this weeks wt study (how to maintain a positive viewpoint) was all about keeping the flock positive even if they feel they are not doing enough in 'service'?.
the irony is that the very reason they feel stressed or worthless is because of the pressures the org puts on them to perform!!!.

Evil. I got very sick of yesterday's WT study that I couldn't sleep very well
