shucks, where's Blondie this week?
by stillin ini don't see her review of today's study article.
the "experience" of the person who was shunned by his family until he got himself reinstated really bothered me.
no mention of repentance, no mention of his wanting to restore worship of jehovah back into his life.

another "dream" thread
by lostinthought infirst of all let me say that dreams fascinate me and i really think that they can mean something, anyway, i am still living the jw life (doubts and all).
i have this friend who is not a jw and he told me that he had this really wired dream about me.
he said they shunned you, and i was like who shunned me and he said your people.

Blah...
by lostinthought ini've been felling blah lately, it may be the weather (never ending winter).
but wathever, i've got a never ending headache and i'm into looking onto jw stuff again.
i have not posted here in a while because i did not need to, now i feel i need to again, mabe to be reassured that what i'm doing is ok, to get a little encouragement from my ex witness buddies on this site...i haven't been to a meeting since this summer and i really don't plan on going to the memoral but i think i feel guilty about it....

Journal entry
by lostinthought inhere is a journal entry i made in august 2011 when i first started waking up.... .
i finally think i can admit my feelings in writing today.
maybe i should blame it on being a pessimist, maybe it's the truth.

National Teachers appreciation week
by lostinthought ini know that there were a few threads on nures' week, but before this week ends, it's also national teachers week also!
i respect all the nurses( i almost became one) but i found my true calling in education.
it was my job that helped me "wake up" to the truth about the "truth"...it was working with children (and some adults) on a daily basis that helped me to see not all wordly people are bad.. say thank you to a teacher tomorrow!.

Great quote from the brochure "road to life"
by lostinthought ini don't know if anyone has ever posted this beautiful gem of a paragraph but page 25 paragraph 3 states:.
3 if that happens to you, how will you react?
many people know that their way of worship is wrong, yet they hesitate to break free from it.
