Prayers at mealtime!!?
by Frog inwho still find it strange years on to dive straight into your mail meal without 'giving thanks'?
i say main meal, because dad's prayers were always considerably lengthy before a main meal, and are an institution in every jw household.
even now after a few years i'm just about ready to tuck in when i find myself saying a simple thanks under my breath.

Do you look better or worse
by pratt1 inthe other day i was looking at some old photos of my wife as a young witless teen.
several of the pictures were taking at assemblies and gatherings/weddings.. what amazed me is that she looks better today than she did as a witless teen or early twenties.
i don't mean just the expression on her face, but also the way she was dressed.

How does one write to the "societey" for an annulment?
by Frog ini've decided it's worth a try...i don't want to regret feeling that i once again acknowledged their control over my life, so i intend to draft it in such a way as i'm telling them, but still if they should honour it then that would be a bonus.... but, i'm not sure who to address the request to at the sydney headquaters?
has anyone had success with an annulment request before?
any suggestions, regrets, things to be warey of?.

Do you think you are normal?
by jwfacts ini always felt unique from everyone else.
being a jw i never quite felt like i was from the same planet as all the other school children.
