Were you happy as a witness?
by JH inthe few years that i was an active witness, i can't say that i was very happy.
i really didn't mind missing a meeting.
i always felt that a meeting every 2 days for the rest of my life was a little exaggerated.

If You Could've Said Something You Weren't Supposed To Say........
by minimus inat a meeting-------what would it have been?
i can imagine making a comment at the watchtower study after reading blondie's review and spouting some of her research from the publications to mess everybody up or give a public talk and say something like," as we all know, the society has blundered many, many dates in the past and given some false prophecies, too-----but that doesn't mean we should stop trusting them, now does it????

Details on Files Kept in the Cong.
by Blueblades inwhat exactly is put into the file on those who are disfellowedshipped?is the information very detailed,so that others can read such details,or is it just that they have been disfellowedshipped.. for example:suppose someone have been df.for a sexual matter,brother or sister.are the details descriptive of what was committed or is just that they were df.i know that on the outside of the envelope the name is posted and that's it.but if someone were to open the folder and look inside can they get the detailed information on that person?.
when do the elders destroy such folders?can a person who no longer wishes to come back get their records and destroy them themselves?.

Productive sleep?
by seattleniceguy inthe last few months for me have been quite a journey.
after i first left the organization in september, i found that my drive to work, to play, even to eat, was shot.
i was faced with a prospect i had never considered - living out my life in this system of things - and i had no idea what i wanted to do.

My First New Year's
by Mysterious ini ended up going to a party with some friends even though i had earlier planned to lay low this year.
i had an awesome time and showed up at home quite late.
the whole witness take on new year's that it always is some big drunk event is such crap, it doesn't have to be.

I Am Mine
by Euphemism inwhen the pearl jam single i am mine came out a little over a year ago, i was still a witness.
it's easy to see why the lyrics appealed to me at a time when i was subconsciously trying to free myself from the mind control.. i know that i was born and i know that i?ll die.. the in between is mine.. i am mine.. .... we?re different behind the eyes, there?s no need to hide .
.... the sorrow grows bigger when the sorrow's denied.. i only know my mind.. i am mine.. freedom has been a gradual process.
