is this just a lot of talk?
They are already ruined. Just playing 'kick the can down the road' at the moment. Best it will ever be (for most of us) was in the mid 70's.
Long, slow descent. Read Jame Kunstler's 'The Long Emergency' or his latest: 'Too much magic'. If you are new to this.
this is probable my most favourite time of the year.
may.woop woop.
grass is growing, life is coming back after the death and greyness of winter.. them swallows are such amazing little birds.
They are one of my favorite birds too. I love to sit in the back yard when they are swarming and let them fly all around me. They seem to be having fun. So clumsy on the ground, so graceful in the air. Quite talkative when they want to be. Also interesting how they have the ability to land on the side of the house and perch there.

it all seems so playful and cutsie wootsie to an insider i suppose, i am seeing posts all over facebook about how this is just what my kid needs.. this is truly proper food at the proper time blah blah blah blomit blomit vomit vomit... the funniest part is however is that it cuts out at the end by saying "let's practice what you are going to say".. .
why not make the video longer and discuss how you can get an idea for a 6 year old on how to talk to a grown person about how they are going to die unless you study the bible with me..
Uggh, Too much for me! I have to admit though, it was pretty slick.
I just noticed the video projector in the hall hanging from the ceiling when the wife coerced me to go recently. I feel something bad comes our way.
Why would you need more than the bible to go out in service?
stumbling block.

Yes, crossing the finish line is not easy when the ones overseeing the race are constantly adjusting the rules, clarifying the “light.” Tripping the runners so to speak.
And I might add: they keep moving the finish line...
i am so tired of waking up without hope.
so tired of fighting one more day...i just want it to end as painless as possible.
i truly don't have the willpower or strength anymore..
Hang in there LouBelle. I feel the same most of the time and I have a good job and live quite a comfortable life (materially). For me it is just depressing to see where the human race is going. I try to spend time outside with my dogs and in the garden. A long walk in the forest also helps. If you don't have a job, perhaps you could get involved in some type of volunteer/community help activity. Send some PM's to people here you know well and ask for a listening ear. If I could, may I ask what you feel is missing in your life at the moment? What would help?
always loved his comedy - very inventive.
in his later years, he was a fixture around town.
he'd hang out (sometimes in front of the market, or at an executive services office in the village) and do comedy routines and banter with anyone who came by.. .
Wow. Thanks for the update. I thought he died a long time ago. Always loved him He was always on the edge (for that era) but would probably come across as pretty lame today. I need to check out some utube stuff to see if he is really as funny as I remember!
i don't really know what to say i'm a bit nervous.
but i am new here and i want to say thank you all for these forums and the many contributions people have made.. for about 9 months i been frequenting here and other places on the net while i have undergone an in depth bible analysis.
after finding that my bible is not consistant with the more favorable options of translating greek words especially in key doctinal areas, i have concluded the great unlikelyhood of jehovah's witnesses having god's blessing and approval.. not just that though.
Welcome. Keep studying, learning, thinking. Be open-minded, but continue to be skeptical. Remember that even Solomon said at Ecclesiates 1:18: For in the abundance of wisdom there is an abundance of vexation, so that he that increases knowledge increases pain. In other words, it will be a bumpy ride....
dreamed i was in service and about to give a sunday talk, but forgot my notes and outline at home.
i have not set foot into a kingdumb hall in over a decade, slowly faded... creepy dream....
I had a 'bad' dream this week too. In my dream, the WTS started selling food and drink products that the faithful and loyal were expected to buy. Probably just too much vodka (on my part)... But it seemed too real. Where is the disconnect button?
... can you name that the wts hurts people?.
two big ones for me:.
it pushes people to the edge and when they commit suicide they say: "well he wasn't really a jw anyways soit has nothing to do with us".. it pushes people so much to do more and more and more that they get depressed, and physically sick.
I'm with Mum on the introvert thing. I remember an elder telling me - we have to be 'people' people = extroverts. I realize in the USA that introverts are viewed, as to borrow a phrase from the WTS as 'mentally diseased', but can't we all just get along?
it costs 13673.00 kat.
