COLONIALISTS
by RAYZORBLADE inok, some of us...erm, most of us here, are of some sort of 'colonialist' extraction.. that being said, those of us, of the 'commonwealth' persuasion, do you have any comments or perceptions of your fellow *colonialist* nation neighbour?.
rayzorblade is here in canada, no surprise.. as far as my personal affinity towards great britain: zero.
do not take offense.. but, that being said, i look towards some of my other commonwealth neighbour nations: australia, new zealand, belize, malaysia, singapore, and many other nations i did not mention; how do you feel as a so-called: colonialist ?.

Money and the Meetings a Problem?
by Blueblades in.
a friend of ours was told that he/she would be taken off as the beneficiary of a large amount of money unless he/she would come back to the meetings and go out in the field service.. our friend has been fading for quite some time now.the person who put him/her as beneficiary won't have anything to do with him/her unless he/she comes back to the meetings and participates in the field service.. he/she will not be bribed and will lose the large amount of money he/she stands to gain because of refusing to be compromised as to what is known about the society now.. his/her friend only knows that he/she has family and personal concerns as the reason he/she don't go to meetings anymore.letting the friend know the real reasons would certainly be cause for him/her to be removed as the beneficiary of a large amount of money.. our advice to him/her was to be true to ones self even though this would be financially difficult.. the reason we are putting the person as him/her is to protect the identity of the individual friend of ours.. we would appreciate some of your thoughts concerning this matter.. blueblades

hello everyone
by itsallgoodnow inmy first post here - - wanted to give my story, too.
raised a jw, stayed in out of fear, painted myself into a corner and currently struggling to get out completely.

Does your past define you?
by Princess inthey were discussing this on the radio this morning.
are you defined by what you have done in your past, or is it the present experiences that define you?.
the dj and tracey lawrence (country singer) were trying to emphasize that we are defined by what we do now as opposed to our past.. are we as a group here an exception?
