  Then there were those that always held my hand a little bit to long, that was equally as gross as the limp noodle hand shake.

  Watchtower Speech Taboos - Censorship by Ommision

  bahbuttons said: another time i accidently told a kid god bless you in the kh and you'd think i just said every swear word known to man with the looks i got from everyone....another embaressing moment that was.............fond memories eh,lolquoteendquoteeend.

  th is an interesting point.

  apostates always bang on about watchtower double speak and the way the society twists words, investing them with mind-control triggers but rarely do we hear about censorship by omission, the words jw's can't speak.

  It is so amazing how beautiful and damaging ice can be. Those trees really took a hit.

  Great videos. But be careful!

  Post #1000: A poem I wrote yesterday about someone here

  by kurtbethel in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  this poem is about one of our esteemed members who got free of the wt grip and is exploring where that freedom leads.. no, i will not tell who it is, though it would not be hard to figure out if you were determined enough.. if you see yourself in the poem, then great!

  it is also a nod to anyone who gets free of their tower, whatever it is.. .

  Snapped. It just occurred to me that I REALLY hate my life. Mostly all of it.

  here lately, i have just been wishing that i could just fast-forward through my remaining years on earth and just die to get this nonsense all over with.. i have only myself to blame.

  if i had gone through with my attempt to leave this hokey religion about sixteen years ago when i attempted to--before i got married and had kids--then maybe i wouldn't be teetering on the very slippery edge of sanity.

  instead i punked out, buckled under the threats of shunning and guilt of abandoning family members, and so here i am--looking into the mirror every morning wondering when the nightmare is going to end.

  I'm so sorry to hear of your problems, especially knowing I can't really help you. It's so sad to be in a marriage that's devided by religion, even though you still go, it is still divided in a way.

  I came to the conclusion a few months ago that I had to take charge of my life. I was so tired of going to meetings andwondering why I was there.The one difference with me is that my husband had stopped going many years ago and my children are grown and had already made their exit fron JW"S. I guess the point I'm trying to make is that if you are so unhappy with your life the way it is then you are the only one that can change it. You deserve to be HAPPY. If that means rocking the boat for a while, then so be it. The boat will finally get still again and maybe your wife will at least try and see your viewpoint. If she does'nt then it might mean more drastic action on your part. But life is to short to just leave it the way it is.

  The one thing that would'nt help you or your children is to try and end your life. Where would your kids be without you?What example would that set?SO my advice is this,, If you don't want to go to meetings, then don't go. Stop pretending for your wife. Be true to your feelings. That's not a selfish way to do it either. If you are happier with your life, then you'll be a better Dad and husband.Don't be a doormat.

  Sorry if this sounds harsh. I don't mean for it to. Best wishes. Hope things work out for you.
