I Never BELONGED in the BORG, Did You?
by BoozeRunner inin recent years, i have come to the realization that i never really beonged in the wts.
you see, i was born into the religion, so therefore it was all i ever knew.
but as i have examined my inner self, i realize that i simply dont have what it takes to be a witness.

Advice From an MS
by BoozeRunner inreading some posts tonite made me think of some advice i was given by a ms one day.. at the kh one sunday, i had genuinely asked brother g. how he was feeling.
i knew he had health problems and could see he was kind of uncomfortable.
he replied that his blood pressure had been high, and he was feeling the effects of it.. he then went on to explain that he rarely goes into detail because most brothers and sisters dont want to hear a persons problems.

EXPLORER-Hatred, Hurt, and Forgiveness
by BoozeRunner inexplorer spoke about ex-jw's hating jw's and spoke about forgiveness.. i dug up an article from the 12/1/97 watchtower.. in paragraph 15, under the sub-heading, when it seems impossible to forgive, the article stated this:.
what, though, if others sin against us in a way that inflicts the deepest of wounds, and yet there is no acknowledgement of the sin, no repentance, and no apology on the part of the offender?
(proverbs 28:13) the scriptures clearly indicate that jehovah does not forgive unrepentant, hardened sinners.

Best Advice I NEVER Heeded....
by BoozeRunner inhaving been "born" into the wts, my dad, of course, tried to get me to focus on a "future" in the borg.. when i was choosing a high school to attend, i settled on the new york school of printing, mainly because i had a few jw friends who were attending, and we grew up together.. when i made this choice, my dad suggested that if i wanted to learn about printing, i should set bethel as my goal after school.. i remember his words clearly, "you will learn all you need to know about printing @ bethel", implying that the wts were the real experts.. how happy i am that i never heeded that advice.
as i see it, i would have learned how to print propaganda and live @ slave wages.. dont get me wrong, i do print propaganda, but i make a pretty good living at it.
everyone who prints is trying to sell somethng, lol, but why should i live as a pauper selling someone else's crap.. so, any examples of wts career "advice" that you didn't heed, even while a faithful borg drone?.
