Anyone Going to Church Yet?

by prophecor in

jw
friends

i've started attending church, recently.

it feels great to be able to worship with vigor and feeling.

still have the occasional trappings of having been a witness and guilt about goung to satan's house.

Good to see you post again! I've been attending church for 6 years now and love it. My relationship with God has grown multitudes and I'm truly happy in my life. Not to mention all the wonderful and loving friends I now have. Their love is unconditional. I don't have to march to any drum to be approved and loved by them.

My mind might still be a little clouded by the WT doctrine that was "washed" into my brain for over 30 years but I'm learning what true Christianity is all about and doing my part to share my love with others.

I've been a life long member of PETA (People Eating Tasty Animals) and I have no plans to stop doing so.

my eyes are still watery.

happy tears.

Thanks for this post Ohiocowboy,

This is the kind of stuff that shows just how sentimental I am and not an ogre! Family, relationships, and friendships are what makes life livable and enjoyable for me.

I've personally met three people on the old JWD............fell in love with one of them (didn't work out) and had great great conversation and coffee with the other two.

I've talked to several and one of them is the son of an elder I have had dealings with from another cong. Some do not post anymore. Guess they have moved along as I have done.......but I still like to read what is going on with the "old faithful" and the newbees.

All have been great and REAL people.

My neighbor's daughter hung herself

by frozen one in

jw
friends

when i got home from work tonight i was told my neighbor's daughter had commited suicide.

the daughter lived several hours from here and i had only met her a couple of times over the years, so i didn't know her at all really.

from what i understand the daughter had struggled with substance abuse problems for a long time.

HappyDad

Sorry to hear about that.

A guy I knew hung himself the day before Thanksgiving last year in a closet at his mother's house. He left an ex wife and a daughter. Sad to say..........he was a substance abuser also and was facing more time in the county jail for not complying with his probation officer. This guy would give you the shirt off his back but was a prisoner to his type of abuse. He is missed by those who knew him.

It's truly a shame that really nice people such as my friend let drugs mess their lives up.

Just my 2 Cents.......Go ahead and FLAME AWAY.....I won't reply

"inciting hatred on the basis of race, religion, gender, nationality or sexuality or other personal characteristic.".

is this seriously one of the forum's rules to follow?

how can that be so when this whole forum is based on inciting hatred towards one religion.....jehovah's witnesses.......wow this is funny!

HappyDad

Welcome Scrappy,

And thanks for your opinion. Keep reading about our lives as Jehovah's Witnesses and you might have a better feeling for everyone.

As a famous person once said........."The truth will set you free, but first it will piss you off."

How has Life Been Going For You ? Wanna Talk about It ?

by flipper in

jw
friends

are you hanging in there with life and moving on- post witness ?

i'm sure most are staying busy with work- or staying busy looking for work with this economy.

are you moving on and enjoying life in your leisure time ?

HappyDad

Life is great! Been mostly out since 2000 but last meeting (Memorial) was 2003.

I'm having my revenge by living a good and happy life.

Why... I just recently discovered the greatest new catfish bait.........Snausages doggy treats. Catfish love it!

Actually, I've tried other dog and cat treats......the soft ones that can be put on a hook.

Great bait!
