since my coming out publicly, i have received a lot of kind words.. i wanted to thank all of you from the depth of my heart.. .
on the other hand, i need to make two things clear:.
i'm often encouraged to use my position to create cartoons or stories for nickelodeon, etc.... i do not have that kind of fire-power.
Vincent, people who sent you those emails showed their true self to you. Whatever they've written, it's telling something about their state of mind (and heart!) and has nothing to do with you or who you are! I felt you were very courageous by taking of your mask and I very much respect that. Be who you want to be, don't change for anyone!
With love,
Bruja.

they would give the perfect comments, show they knew what to apply and how, then be their cruel back-stabbing people they had always been.. .
Spot on! Very well written and very recognizable!
i just thought about them a few minutes ago.
you put how many hours you spent in service and the amount of mags.
and books you placed(sold).
Oh yes, awful... our 'book study overseer' (do you call it that way in English??) had to give my ex and me a phonecall every month. We always 'forgot' to report, and we always said 'oh we'll call you back in five minutes', so we had a little time to think about what we could count as 'service' etc. Most of the time we made it up just to be 'regular'... I hated those phonecalls, 'cause they made me feel so guilty and watched!
these are apparently real complaints received from a uk tour operator.
no country has a monopoly on having stupid people!.
these are actual complaints received by thomas cook vacations from dissatisfied customers:.
Hahaha, it's amazing what people come up with to try and get their money back. But I do understand some of the complaints about Spain... it's really packed with Spanish people here... nobody told us that before we moved here! LOL
now onto my brother.
no suprise that he's an alcoholic like i am.
when i was 2 months old he went after me with garden sheers.
Read your whole story and I feel so sorry for you. Just want to give you a hug and hope and wish you will find some peace and quiet in your life soon. It's about time, noone should be put through so much strain and suffering.
Here's my virtual hug for you
# 3 newbie post.
first of all, the newbies have set a record here!.
have you ever seen a 4pg post where 21 new members reply!
Welcome to all Newbies... I really like this forum!
i'm on it every couple of days and it's usually to see pics of my grandkids or to get the 411 onwhat's going on..
Same with me as Faithfull Witness, was on FB nearly 24/7... until we had no internet for a month and I realised that I wasn't really living. So I deactivated my account. I still have an anonymous account on a fictitious name, but no friends in it... it's mainly to check out some DIY-pages every now and then for new inspiration, so I use that once a week at the most and sometime look up people I've known in the past (specially when one of my children tells me things like 'did you know brother so-and-so is gay? Look at his FB!').
But I have to be aware, 'cause the same danger lies in this forum... I keep checking if there are new topics, new postings... so I'm sort of an undisciplined addict if I'm not careful enough...
the jehovah's witnesses came to our door, claiming to hold the secrets of family happiness.
they told me they had the "one true religion," and had come to save my life.
i was a bible student for quite awhile, along with my husband.
Here another family broken by the WTS rules. I'm the only one that's DF'd, a couple of others have faded, but even the faders still think and act as JW's. And the rest of the family is way too scared to be destroyed in Armageddon, so they stay in... just in case it's all true ('cause I know 100% for certain that 80% of the family don't believe it anymore, they're just a bunch a anxious people afraid to 'miss the boat' or should I say 'ark' ).
i'm proud to say i'm an apsostate.. .
anyone else up front about it?.
LOL really funny I'm not sure if I'm an Apsostate but and Apostate according to the JW's definition... definitely!
but the understanding is affirmed in the revelation climax book, albeit with less detail.
the events are as follows (& i'm keeping the quotes really short) :.
1st angel - "it all began during the bible students cedar point convention in september 1922. there gods people enthusiastically adopted a resolution entitled "a challenge.
I just never understood anything in the Revelation book, so I skipped a lot of the 'book studies' when that book was studied. I always felt I was too dumb to understand such difficult biblical things... but maybe I was too smart to buy it
