Can I Just Say (Total "Fluff" and I Apologize in Advance)...

by AGuest in

jw
friends

that i hate being "sick"... that i'm tired of being "under the weather"... that i wish this "recovery" and infection would hurry the heck up... and that i am almost out of my mind with boredom... and the inability to do my "usual" stuff... almost to the point of kicking the dog(s) (no, i'd never do that, but i really want to kick something!)???.

rant.

can't help it.

Awwww Shelby! [Peace and healing love to you] I really feel for you... It's awful when you just feel poorly, let alone when your in recovery mode from major surgery! It will get better, just view each new day as one day closer to being back to your normal active self. Tammy is right, sometimes when you vent is does relieve the frustration even if only a little...Vent anytime you want, we're all here to listen, offer support and show you love.

You are in my prayers, love you loads.

Oh my goodness! I'm crying again.... I'm going to end up with permanent swollen eyes! Lol. TM that is wonderful! Really happy that your sister has accepted you for leaving the dubs and not held it against you.

Do people praying out loud in public disturb you?

by Mad Sweeney in

jw
friends

i am sitting here in a study lounge.

when i got here around 15 minutes ago the only ones here were two young ladies and a young man, sitting around a table with their eyes closed.

the young man was talking.

watersprout

It always seems like a very personal, private thing between members of the table,

Not if your a dub... They seem to like to draw attention to themselves. The ones i know would stand up and pray! Very embaressing! People would just turn and stare.

We went to a anniversary party a few years back and a prayer was given. The elder that gave the prayer started asking jehovah to help us be well behaved and to know whats right or wrong. I couldn't control myself! I was shaking trying to hold the laughter in... The waitresses/waitors were laughing to so it made me worse. The waitress who was stood next to me must have thought i was a non jw cause i got extra helpings of everything. She was really nice to me. I think any form of public prayer just reminds me of the jw's and i can't bear it.

Peace

No i don't think you are a jerk... I find public praying disturbing... Reminds me when i was a dub and when you went out to eat there was always a public prayer. My dad always used to say one in the car beforehand! lol

When people pray in public it's like they want people to look at them and think ''ooooh look how godly they are''.... Hate it! If you pray it should be between you and your God, not between you, God and whoever is in earshot.

may you all have peace!.

for the first time in close to 15 years, i have not been compelled by our lord to issue an "invitation" on this board regarding the upcoming wtbts "memorial" event.

for many years, i have posted exhortations and reminders as to what our lord said about those "in union" with him and what it takes to be in such union.

Thank you for this lovely post Shelby! As i was reading it i got really emotional... Don't know why!

Get plenty of rest and i do agree with Outlaw... Stay at home cause we all know how those JW's love to share their germs!

Love ya!
