  GB/BG,

  next time try either "in memoriam" or "memoriam definition"

  Dictionary

  Directory > Words > Dictionary

  in me·mo·ri·am (in ' m?-môr'e-?m, -mor'-)
  prep.

  In memory of; as a memorial to. Used especially in epitaphs.

  it seems that's what the guy meant. no need to make a big case about it, though it does make me wonder about his college?

  (((Richie)))

  Maybe I SHOULD be your MOM! The JW son I raised is NOW shunning me cause I told him about the elders spiritually abusing me and I won't go to meetings.

  I have had a really tough 3 months. I feel like my son hates me cause I am not a regular JW. (I can't go back..and be a JW after what the elders said to us on a welcoming visit and knowing the true pedophile situation).

  I long for a life with my 2 sons...but I won't take coercion (or emotional blackmail) back to a "cult" just to get it. IT grieves me so.

  When I was 14 my Mom died.......All's I can think about it how grateful I would be to have parents to call on the phone. My Dad wasn't a JW and he is dead........I didn't care......at least I had a parent to call.

  Let's hope he wakes up from this "cult" and realizes he has a MOM that really loves and misses him...

  tearfully,

  I originally titled it In Memoriam, but then decided in Memorandum worked better.

  Sorry.

  i wasn't making a big deal out of anything, just pointing out that his choice of word worked as well and that maybe you should focus on the point and try to have some empathy instead of self-righteously correcting people all the time. Sincerely, GGBG

  HOLY CRAP... I never thought of it before, but my entire relationship with my mother is based on us being dubs... We haven't gone to the beach in years due to the JW budget, our family night consists of just movies and the watchtower, and other than that we hardly talk!

  When I leave we will have absolutely NOTHING in common! And I somehow never even thought of that before.

  I'm sorry Richie, the whole situation sucks. I can't really say that I hope you and your mom get things straightened out, because I think your life will progress much better without her... But it still sucks.

  So I guess that means I don't get to have a mother.

  And the only reasons I don't like that is purely selfish.

  What will I tell MY wife?

  What will I tell MY children?

  What will I tell MYSELF?

  Richie, I'm so sorry. I'm on the brink of breaking my Mom's heart. But the sad truth is that most problems I ever had trace back to her, and that stupid cult. We have all been robbed, and WT has hell to pay.

  Absolutely incredible post RR! One of the best I've had the pleasure to read here.

  Also to the old hen (orbyyouboreus) that tried to crap all over this thread, WTF is wrong with you? The pompous jovie attitude is showing in you!

  Richie I'm so sorry that you're going through all this mental anguish right now. It's sounds like the religion did a real number on your mother. I truly hope that one day, she realizes what a good son she has in you.

  Eduardo, do everyone a favour and piss off. Richie is hurting right now and he doesn't need your smart assed remarks over a word. Geezus.
