by OUTLAW inhow many of the ten commandments... does the wbt$ break everyday?...
the wbt$ has set themselves up as spokesman for god..jesus is out of a job..in watchtower world..the wbt$=god.
all images are forbidden in watchtower world..except the watchtower image... the wbt$ gods name jehovah,is a 14th century catholic translation mistake... the wbt$ doesn`t like jw`s to take sundays off..screw the sabbath... .

When it comes to my relationship I am deeply insecure and affraid of abandonment. there is this anxiety that perpetuates over and over and over again. And that is, 'the moment you stop worrying about her not leaving you, it'll happen.' And then it's backed up by everyone saying 'yeah that's usually what happens with life, the moment you stop worrying about something, it ends up happening.' So i keep the anxiety...to keep the girl.
this also reflects my spirituality. Anxiety and fear. When i do the 'right thing' and start getting back 'on the path' ..by doing communion and other things, there is this HUGE anxiety of having to do EVERYTHING perfectly, EVERYTHING correctly. If i don't......GOD and/or HIS SON will 'punish me!' with pain...emotional pain or I will loose out on something extremely important that i will later get told 'you didn't have to let that go..i didn't tell you.' There is also this 'fear of failure thing' ....where everything needs to be done right or i'm a failure..Logically it makes sense that this is NOT the case, but emotionally...this is what happens. So the moment i STOP doing communion, the anxiety is aleviated...at least from the 'gotta be perfect' thing in my spirituality. This perpetuates the 'don't do communion because bad things will happen'...remember 'the moment you stop worrying about something, it'll end up happening.'
Does anyone else feel this way? have felt this way in their own self deelopment? If so, how did you conquor it?

My main concern is not my 401k ...honestly, I believe the 401k is going to FALL in the future (Read Robert Kyosaki's 'prophecy' ..founder rich dad Poor dad). So i'm trying t make alternative methods to make money, here, in the now. One way to do this...is to invest in a company, I will research repeatedly. I'm trying (like many others) to become financially independant in the long run. I also do not trust the 401k. If I can use it to my benefit now and put it into stocks an dmake money now or in the long run, i'd much rather do that. My main thing is, I need money NOW. I need to invest NOW, not only for the long run...because I want a long term shares, but also a short term. And I'm reading up books by Lynch and trying to undersatnd it all. I think it's ridiculous to put money in the bank and save it, when you can put it in an investment and make more. Yes, i'm aware of the fact that you can loose it all spending 100 bucks a money on buying shares...in the long term investment, will only benefit me in the long run, if I do my research correctly and choose the correct stock. Yes I want a diversified portfolio, but seeing how i'm just getting started, I want to make cash to invest and reinvest, and reinvest all gains and profits (excluding taxes of course [like take out 15% out of all capital gain and reinvest the rest]). The fact is, I don't know about mutual funds...i know barely anything about it. I have what Lynch calls 'Common sense' when it comes to certain things that i can just look around and say 'this is a great product, it'll take off.' or 'this is going to really suck.' Just listening to people helps understand what the consumers want and what will work. Of course it's not tha tsimple, but it's a start. and of cours elooking at balance sheets and P/E is good, but that doesn't always help, however, it is a good start. I basically need to speak to someone and have a serious conversastion about what I can do right now. No, i'm not going to come running and screaming about how i lost everything, if i do. I undersatnd the risk here. The part I DON'T understand is the taxes and stuff. If i take all the crap i buy (soda, ice cream, energy drinks etc..) and just take all the money i would put into those 'luxuries' and instead put that money into a particular stock and STILL loose it all, I will have gained only knowledge and experience, as opposed to a stimulation of oral gradification through certain unnecessary items. I just don't want to sit there and not only LOOSE th emoney invested, but have to PAY MORE than I invested. That bothers me.
I'm open to more advice. If anyone is open to having a one on one discussion, I would greatly appreciate the guideance.

Ok First off let me ease your worry...I'm not asking you 'what stocks I should invest in.' I have a stock in mind that I have seen progress steadily up and up. Before I could even think about investing, i knew this company was going to take off and it's slowly climbing. With more and more research and starting to reach the conclusion that this is a good investement. I see this as a serious investing oppertunity. (this is where all the stock holders go 'yeah yeah...suuuuree') ...that is alright =) I'm still needing some advice..
But here's the thing: I've NEVER invested before. I've heard wild stories about people investing $3k in a stock and the IRS comes to them saying they owe $92k in taxes. I would greatly like to talk to someone who knows how taxes work with stock trade.
The stock i'm going for is a long term investment, not a short term. Do I need a sellers permit? or a Fictious Business License in order to buy stocks? When do I owe taxes? Quarterly? And what taxes can I claim, if any, and what is expected for me to file if I buy and sell my shares?
I tried looking up stuff on the internet, but everytime i look up stuck i get slammed with 'BUY AND TRADE STOCKS FOR $7.99!.' So i'm reaching out to people on this site that might be able to advise a newbie. I'd be very much interested in communicating off the net, maybe phone...or email. Either way, Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you
Thanks!
p.s. I have a day time Job. I work 36 hours a week...I'm not sure how my financial situation as a fulltime employee effects how i file taxes with the shares I purchase and Sell.

Bloom of youth for Married/unmarried people
by Voices ini remember when we were part of the jehovah's witness organization, we got repeatedly taught over and over again how paul in 1 corinthians 7:36 teaches us not to marry unless we're past the bloom of youth.
now in this situation it does refer to the bloom of youth in the female person, the 'virgin.
' but we were always taught in the organization 'don't get married unless you're mature.

I remember when we were part of the Jehovah's witness organization, we got repeatedly taught over and over again how paul in 1 Corinthians 7:36 teaches us not to marry unless we're past the bloom of youth. Now in this situation it does refer to the bloom of youth in the female person, the 'virgin.' But we were always taught in the organization 'don't get married unless you're mature.' Now the scripture does talk about females, but the male population were taught the same thing through the JW. So I thought to myself. besides the physical age and physical features of the body...what would be considered 'the bloom of youth.' Now we can sit and debate this over and over again, but here's what I thought of:
the bloom of youth does not only encompass physicality ...such as genitals and or social status...or employement issues. All the necessary things that have to deal with maturation. But What if bloom of youth also encompassed mental? Now many of you would be like 'well DUH!' ...but hear me out..
Now I know someone who's aunt got married when they were really young. I don't know the details...so this is my assumption on what really happened. I could be wrong. She was HEAD over heels for this guy and absolutely 'in love' ...and the family married them. (18+). Over the course of the years they had children. After many many years of commited life, this guy could not grow any 'balls.' He would continually appease every desire that his wife had. As often, she would push his boundries of what she could get away with. Started out small...and because he wanted to please her...he broke his own boundries. She wanted to do something, he allowed. After all ....it didn't involve sexuality..or disloyalty or adultery. So she broke his broundries over and over again...to see how far she can push his limits. Over a period of time....she got 'disgusted' with him. He wasn't the 'STRONG adamant...authorative man...that she once thought back when she was 18' ... He never grew...mentally....he stayed 18 years old. She kept pushing his limits...and he loved her so much that he let her. She started to grow an intense hatred for him...instead of respecting him enough to say 'i'm not going to take advantage of him...and respect whatever decisions he's already made for himself...and let him stick with it' ...she pushed..more and more. One day she started to cry and pray to God..'please let me fall back in love with him...please let me fall back in love with him' ....but the Respect was gone. So she gave up. She started going to bars...hanging out there...met a guy ...had an affair. Had her 'fling' ...developed 'strong feelings' etc.. She left her husband filed for divorce. ...lived with the 'new guy'...who was like a gem in her eyes. He would ask her for money and help, she would help as she could. Over a period of time, he needed a place to stay...so she went back to her ex...cause she knew he would let them stay. She didn't tell him they were datin g(i don't think) ...but just 'friends' ... the uncle...couldn't say no to his wife (ex)...cause he still loved her. So he didn't 'grow any balls' ...broke another boundry...and let them stay... The guy lived in the basement and at the end of it all.....he turned out to be a liar. He had money problems...was extortioning...and all the while hiding it from his girlfriend (the wife). the Uncle never knew about this until it was too late. Once he (the guy done with an affair) was done with her...he disappeared. She doesn't want to go back to her Ex (no love) ...and so they live together, but 'arn't married' because he can't say 'no' ...and she can't say 'yes.'
Now... Even though they both are in their 30's-40's ... Did either of them grow mentally? One couldn't get past the ability to say 'no' (the husband)...the other couldn't stop pushing the boundries on what she could get away with her 'daddy' (new male figure in her life). He did everything to make his 'mommy' happy ...so she'd stay and not leave......and SHE did everything to say how far she can get away with her 'daddy.' they both sat there...as kids...trying to either take advantage of their 'parent figure' (you know how they say..you marry your parents?..girl..to dad... boy to...mom)or ...never being able to say no...to make their mommy happy.
now...in all this I could be wrong, But I definately wanted to just spill my thoughts here and get some feed back. I'm tryingto understand what it means to 'get past the bloom of youth' ... because if THATS the case..., then someone as young as 16 can be ready for married because their frame of mind has to deal with situations that are 30 years old.....and someone as old as 30.....isn't ready for marriage because they're mentally 16.
That lead to my next thought.....how does someone mature ....mentally? I'm sure throwing a temper tantrum when you don't get something you want, is definately something that's childish... but at the same time....to what extent do we mature? ... and how?

Voices. I chose voices cause Voice was taken. I liked the concept of ONE voice...screaming or shouting in a room. Voices then evolved into it's own meaning by the idea that we all hear voices...whether good or bad. We think they're just 'thoughts' but some of us who are more sensitive than others understand that not everythought that enters into your head ...is your own. Especially if you know yourself deep down inside enough to understand and differentiate between your voice and the voice of a 'stranger' ...anyway...Again, there's a voice of the head....and there's a voice of the heart...
POOF! ...opening the baord to this concept
