my brother is in the truth because of what i "taught" him as well as my "example" according to others and him (he doesn't know my official stand yet).

an earlier post opened my eyes a little...i know now i didn't do it alone, and that i was trained to bring in others (one thing that i must say the training really helped me in my career as a sales director, ironically enough).. i was just wondering how other people view this.

Should have been do you...was does anyone, then changed it...grammar.

Now I feel embarrassed someitmes looking back at the things I sais to people, too. Like "there's no sense in me going to college, won't need it"

yesterday i had a conversation which i mentioned on another thread but will detail more here.. i left the jws when i was about 19 and drifted and was df'd 5 years ago.

i'm now 30. my issue always has been and still to this day was the fact that my mother basically disowned me.

that has been an extremely difficult concept/doctrine for me to accept.

Thanks for posting that, I was trying to figure out how to approach that very thing as I am returning "home" in a couple of weeks. The town I am from is very small in rural Louisiana, and I will probably see people from the hall who have never once called me, but always want to know how meetings are going for me these days along with that fake concern look they always give.

Now I can just say - I'm never so well that I don't need someone to pray for me.

.

just dawned on me i haven't seen anything about these.

i remember when several parishes worth (louisiana) of egos all came together to argue through building a hall...then they had to stop them because there were too many "bad elements" and you had to start applying to go.

I don't know how realistic it is...but I just moved, and went to the new cong. long enough to get my card sent, then quit going. They never noticed and didn't know where I lived.

I pulled up one of the "Popups" and it is so funny.

JW"s that do Bookbinding. They will trade bookbinding for "Used ties"..

Then they have an ad on the side that says..Buy used ties! Do Dah!

The site is at..www.bookbind.net

Wonder if they'll have another one for Used Polyester Chester the Molester Suits...with a CLIP ON tie?
