    I'm sitting here now going insane with this program of Fear, Obligation and Guilt!

    oh man....seriously mind numbing.

    I can't bring myself to share too much of it all now.... But I just want to get out.....

    Tell you all more soon about the manipulative trash.....

    Anyone else go to this??

    Why couldn't we have the FUN stuff like ToMo's rants that you all in the USA enjoyed!

    At least that stuff was entertaining in its stupidity!

    This is just boring nothingness!!

    Stuckinarut2 you must have had a terrible time because it is hard enough for you to sit through.

    Actually I had relatives going to it. I was surprised I didn't know about this already. Shame about ToMolll he's my fave.

    I went to this today. I ended up getting bored so I did crosswords instead.

    (I keep a pocket-size book of crosswords inside my meeting notebook)

    Haha Ozgirl!

    I just walked around looking busy (as I was involved with the sound and projector setup anyway....)

    I can't believe the absolute worthlessness of the occasion!

    All they did was boast about "how many are connected via the live stream to hear the wonderful special talk"

    BUT THE OBVIOUS THING WAS THE LACK OF ANYTHING SPECIAL IN THE TALK!

    It was seriously underwhelming.....nothing of note....a few experiences that were of no consequence, and probably exaggerated anyway...

    WASH, RINSE, REPEAT...

    Take some one who has spent their entire life in a monastery. He has most likely never held a full time job, never had to handle a mortgage, never had the face the peak hour traffic or raise a family and indeed all his domestic needs are cared for. Out of many there suddenly our one is told he has this important message to deliver to the world.

    His isolation means he has low education nor any specialist education. At times when he gives a talk he cant read some of the words before him and uses made-up words. But the big moment is upon him its his 'big moment in the sun' and so he puts on his best habit (suit) uses all the gestures and cliques all the approved expressions, locks in behind that microphone ( the wt have not discovered lapel mikes) and says ...nothing.

    Its the genuflect, the gestures, the act of doing that is relevant .

    I haven't heard this talk but it will be like all the other "special" ones down the years that saw families travel hundreds of miles, pay for their own accommodations, meals, perhaps pull time out of work to take it in.
