My wife does most of the housework indoors but I'm kind of a clean freak and have always done a good share of it including bathrooms,laundry,folding, vacuuming, windows,dishes etc. On the weekend I'm the one taking care of the vehicles and household repairs and maintenance. We bought our house new 25 years ago so lately it's been a total makeover inside and out. I've installed carpet,tile,granite, cabinets, crown molding, interior and exterior doors,interior and exterior paint, all new windows,appliances, fireplace,roof and skylights myself. She helps with the yard work but I do the majority. She does 90% of the cooking and treats me like a king...bringing me food and drink while I work or just sitting in front of the TV. This hasn't changed since leaving the borginization...except now we have time for it.

Lot's of references to the video but no link. Not seeing a video about Endurance. Anyone care to provide a link or a video title for those of us who have searched but can't find the one everyone is talking about here?
Thanks,

The life of the 43-year-old, who was an elder for Jehovah's Witnesses, had unravelled in the week leading to his disappearance. Friends and fellow elders John Gregory and John Dale confronted Mr Leathead after they were told pornographic material had been found online on Monday, February 10.Before we are quick to make assumptions, I don't see anywhere saying in the article this man was a Jehovah's Witness.

Prov 13:12 Says something about hope when delayed, makes the heart sick.
Their hopes have been so high for so long and they expect so much out of themselves and others . Their idealized version of how the world should be, doesn't match the realities they are living, even within the congregation.....a sure recipe for disappointment and disillusionment .

If you watch closely, at one point a guy stands up suddenly, slams his little child into the seat as if he's about to take matters into his own hands. He wasn't wearing a Jacket so my highly trained JW scruples tell me he must be and unbeliever. ( and we all know how unpredictable they are) -

....and now we know where the idea that people who leave the organization are "mentally diseased", came from.
It would have been one thing if the guy was coherent and articulate but from his flushed face,slurred speech, dopey grin and stumbling manner, I'd say he'd been sipping wine long before the emblems were ever passed around.

I live on the opposite coast anyway, but have to say I admire you for still being interested in the Bible and in God.
JW's ruined that whole topic for me. After growing up as a JW and all the resulting drama, I am sick to death of agonizing over what the Bible does or doesn't say....what God does or doesn't want and what religious minded people think. Maybe someday I'll come around to it because it would be nice to make some sense of it, it such a thing is possible.
What you're doing almost sounds like what JW's started out as.... people simply studying the Bible together. The problems started when they decided that they were "right" enough to start bossing people around with their beliefs.

Life After the Being Separate from the World
by yodastar inrealised that after leaving many years ago i don't have much of a social circle!!
has anyone else realised that we were not taught to be good in social circles except those that were approved associates?.
i recently went to a birthday party of a 45 year old guy and thought wow - this is what it is like to have formed a healthy social circle.

I agree. Being taught to be on the lookout for wrong doing, impure motives and improper situations does promote paranoia in an individual. That coupled with only associating with people who agree with everything you do, doesn't make for a well rounded interesting person either.
