Encouragement to get back to the meetings

    I keep getting these forwards from certain ones who I knew in the Org. They know I have left because I was "discouraged". They are keeping their distance by not writing to me anything personal, but keep sending these "encouraging" forwards in hopes that I'll be re-awakened, dust off the book bag and head on back to the old KH. I just got this one this morning...

    Sunday I was tired, "I sure could use a charge!" I drug myself to the meeting And felt better, by and large

    Tuesday I felt wimpy "Just wish I could plug in!" By the time the study was over, My face wore a grin. Thursday came and found me grumpy "I've had a stressful day!" We ate dinner and got dressed And attended anyway. Whenever it may happen Whenever I hem and haw I always come home feeling better When I go to the Kingdom Hall! I run on rechargeable batteries And this world drains them dry. But when they're recharged at the meeting I feel like I can fly! Stress may zap my energy And emotions fray and frazzle But after charging up at meetings, I feel a spark and dazzle! When I feel I can't continue And my lights are growing dim Just take me to the meeting Don't forget to plug me in! Jolt me with Jehovah's spirit Through parts and association I know I'll be filled up to the brim Plugged in to the congregation! Though alone I am a weak battery, I can be recharged And through these repeated bursts of power My "up time" is enlarged! Inspired anyone??? cybs

    Sounds like whatever good they think they get out of the meetings, it doesn't last very long.

    What a roller coaster....up down up down

    like constantly picking a scab

    Sounds like that person is ready for some real help.

    Wow! Those meetings really have changed. Maybe I should give it another try!!!!

    Send them this poem in rebuttal.

    I'm not interested. That's so simple. Why do you re-occur, like that rash on my dimple?

    I'm not interested. I have my reasons why. You're welcome to find out, and no, they're not lies.

    You have your metaphors about batteries, getting recharged and so on.

    That's just the blissfull feeling you get, before you know you're conned.

    Now leave me alone, I don't mean to be rude.

    There are just empty promises and calories, in your spiritual food.
