if i knew then what i know now....

if you could go back and utilize the knowledge of ttatt that you have now, how would it have impacted your decisions?.

for me, i would've made some different choices.

i now see that my depression over losing my position in the congregation and watching what i perceived to be my entire world fall apart around me, left me highly susceptible to influence.

Bobcat, you've probably installed something on your computer. I've had this once myself, when I downloaded a tool, along with it came some malware thing that showed adds on pages I visited.

Best thing to do is go to your control panel and look in 'add or remove programs' if you recognize anything you've (probably thoughlessly) installed lately and remove it. In my case it was some 'toolbar' that came along with an app I forgot to uncheck this added 'feature'.

My husband adds that you should check your browser for advertisement plugins or extensions and then disable them or delete/uninstall them.

sorry for that, but i just never feel like i've got something really interesting to say.

so i rather respond on topics of other people.

Thanks for your reaction Maeve, I can relate to your son's thoughts about putting effort into people and getting so little in return. To me it seems that most people live life through Facebook. I'm not on FB anymore, but when I was I really thought I had some dear friends. But it all seemed to collapse as soon as I decided to quit with FB (I don't like their policies). People seem to think that you no longer exist when you're not on FB, at least that's what it looks like. And I'm about to give up on a whole bunch of people whom I love, but I don't get anything from them anymore. So the loveless behaviour isn't just within cults, it's everywhere.

My goal for this year is to find REAL friends, TRUE friends, who are like me... willing to invest in friendship, paying attention to each other, hang out and go out with each other, talk about the things we have in common, laugh a lot, and be there for each other in the hours of need in every way. And this kind of friendship has to be mutual, not just me going to lengths to help someone and never receiving something back (a phonecall or an email with a simpley 'heya, how you're doing?' would be sooo nice, it doesn't have to be big what people can give each other)...

So I reckon there must be such people in Spain, don't you think?

Oh and our 'oliebollen' (the deep-fried breads as you called them) were delicious! First time ever I've completely made them myself, with yeast and all, instead of using 'ready-to-bake'-mix.

Happy New Year to you and your loved ones!

Mood Music: New Year's Eve version
by valkyrie in
1. social
2. entertainment
it's 18:00 here, the evening is young - but promising.. if you listen to music, to get you in a party or socializing mood, before going out on nye, please share it here.

i am currently house-bound, but i would love to hear the festivities, as they kick off!

[i live near one of the favourite nye fireworks locales in my city - a peaky park - so i'm fated to hear the noise later on.

Here's my song for tonight: Viva la Vida by Coldplay (in some way the lyrics have a link to my previous life as a JW, but I like it mostly because of the melody).

Enjoy and Happy New Year Valkyrie!
