  2. bible

  how's these comments in this weeks study?.

  i understood that i had neglected my children when they most needed my guidance and affection, admits eduardo.

  i had not been there to read them bible stories, to pray with them, to cuddle them, and to play with them.

  I have a few Filipino friends, and I know too well what many go through in that country. This week and the previous week's articles only irritates me. The nerve. Many Filipino experience calamities and have to endure corruption from the government, crimes, etc. Even people earning regularly would be broke instantly if they get sick and need hospitalization. A month's treatment for cancer is already half a year's pay for many Filipinos.

  WT is very callous and ends up denigrating these people who have no other choice.

  And by the way, not all Filipinos work abroad as domestic helpers. One of my friends is working as a physician in the US; the other, a chemical engineer.

  easy... skip it!.

  but already i had people calling me asking where i was yesterday!!!!

  the system the jw's have in place can be compared to a communist regime , where everyone keeps a check on each other.

  The money I spend on travel from home and work to the queendom hall is so much more than enough as a donation!

  Assembly News Photo

  this photograph from a news site is a succinct summary of a life in wt's hands....... look at their faces, it says it all.. also, note the watchtower pr machine in action, explaining that it brings 4 million dollars to the location.

  (10,000 x 400 dollars) clearly a watchtower statistic, where is the care and interest for members who are struggling so much, with new videos encouraging less career activity, less work commitments, at an all time economic low for our generation.. http://www.standard-freeholder.com/2014/06/15/thousands-attend-watchtower-convention-in-cornwall.

  father: "i'm a wt 'yes' man and proud of it!

  Dad: We wrestle with the demons, son. What were you thinking?!

  Caleb: Oh, I thought you had something else in mind.

  Dad: Something in my mind? What is that?

  Caleb: It's the element of a person that enables them to be aware of their world and their experiences. But, that's not important right now..

  I'm afraid I'd be single for life

  by ohnightdivine in

  2. relationships

  this is quite embarrassing for me to share, but as a 30+ year old single female i have lingering doubts as to whether i can still meet a decent man and get married.. you all know how difficult it is for sisters to find an appropriate partner in the congregation.. and now, all the more so that i've learned ttatt.

  i still am bound by low self-esteem, and i do have trust issues, especially with men.

  i am very lonely and so i just keep myself busy with work to avoid depression (although it is also a great source of stress).. any other single females out there having similar thoughts?.

  That is true, Apognophos.

  On the other hand I try to think that he is looking at me as spiritually weak, and never a good marriage material.

  What would be your favorite job if you could do anything.?

  by new hope and happiness in

  2. relationships

  on the basis that most of us realise the w.t wasnt really the best " job" or way to spend our days, it would be fun to find out what people would really have liked to have done with there lifes and if this is still possible.

  or maybe its not even a very realistic ambition just a dream.

  in my dreams i stay at home all day and make a living from being a professional artist.maybe i need a phycholgist?.
