Zeb, you're welcome. I took that pic and thought you might like it. Since I was a kid, my dream was to go to Australia. My PM function doesn't work, so I could not reply to your message. Take care, my friend, I will always treasure the support you have given me and many others. Always in my heart, my friend, Zeb. xx

Waking up a loved one....why it can be so difficult.
by Giordano ini recently watched season one of the path........ a dramatic t.v.
show that explores a cult that seems to me to be closer to scientology then the jw construct.. however........ i was struck by actress michelle monaghan's interview about the motivation of the person she portrays.
i think she really gets to the issues we have all faced trying to convince a loved one about our doubts.. http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/live-feed/path-finale-michelle-monaghan-interview-896010.

I've been watching this show, and particularly relating to the son, Hawk, and his struggles with embracing what we knew as 'baptism'. I didn't have a high school love interest, but I was increasingly aware that the 'world' was normal, and the JWS was not. This show really gets to the heart of the matter.
The mother is a complex character - torn between her love of her beautiful and truly loving husband, Eddie, and her "born-in" indoctrination into the Path. She seems to have a keen mind, yet clouded by the cult .. it's a brilliant series, and I look forward to future episodes (very cathartic).
Gio, loved that song! My PM function is not working ATM, and I can't reply, but wanted to let you know... her voice reminds me of Loreena McKinnitt (amazing) ... beautiful, haunting, and thank you so much for sending me the link. xx : )

Feeling Sad After Uncovering TTATT
by pale.emperor inmy initial pangs of unease and doubt led me to research some things.
well, a lot of things really.
i've never felt comfortable using the bible to try to calculate dates (1914).

Tyrell (sp?) , if you are reading this, you're not alone.
This report was heart-rending. Let's hope that it helped someone in the GDA, and especially Tyrell. x -

Hey, Van. You are in PQ? I am only a few hours' drive away....... I know it will never happen, but would love to meet you. xx tal
PS to SIMON- (and I'm sure this will be DELETED, are you happy with your new role as censor?)
Tried to send this PM to Cofty, but you have disabled my PM.............. thanks, after over 10 years of being a member,and flagging trolls, and having your back.
YOU are being a real ARSEHOLE.
Here's the messageI I was TRYING to send to your "new friend", who has lied and stabbed you in the back .. but I guess that's okay, since you're both Brits and both ex-ELDERS .............
I hope you are happy. We could have shared space,and helped a lot of people. instead, ,you persist with your agenda of hate. I feel sorry for Simon,that he has fallen for your lies, after all the things you said behind his back.
SHAME ON YOU!
