Sad News...
by Sentinel inmy mom had her valve replacement and triple by-pass surgery today.
the operation lasted five hours, and they had just gotten her to her room at 8:00pm when she went into cardiac arrest.

Please, I am so upset...I need some hugs...
by Sentinel ini am having a very difficult time and i am here right now because i know in my heart, that when i explain what has just happened to me a few minutes ago, you will understand.
many of you are no doubt going through the same thing.. within several posts here, i have spoken of my mother.
my dear sweet mother, who just turned 78, and who has been a faithful jw since 1959. she abandoned me in 1981, when i decided to leave the borg, and for twelve years she did not speak to me, write to me, call me, or visit me.

Cover-Ups
by Sentinel ini'm hearing more and more about jfk, his life and his murder.
the more i hear, the more i believe it was a government conspiracy.
all of that aside, did anyone hear this interesting tid-bit--they say that he "had to be killed--because he was the only us president that was a catholic, and the only president who wasn't a mason".

Finding out Who you really are
by Sentinel ingood morning everyone,.
i'm very new on here--just "born yesterday", as a matter of fact, but am finding out how wonderful it is to be able to be free to express thoughts and opinions, share ideas, give comfort, and find hope, within "these walls".. i'm going to ask a question, and that is, how long did it take any of you souls out there to find your true self, after leaving jw's?
i was very young when i was first introduced to the studies of jw's.

Maybe the Beatles were right......
by Sentinel ini just came upon a very interesting article, appearing in the atlantic monthly, may 2003, titled let it be, by jonathan rauch, correspondent.
the first introductory statement reads: the greatest development in modern religion is not a religion at allits an attitude best described as apatheism.
this immediately caught my attention.

Oh No, Not Again!
by Sentinel inlast night, around 8:30 (sat., 10/19), it appears the serial snipers struck again.. if you travel south on down route 95, past spotsylvania, where two shootings took place, you come to a small town called ashland, va. there is a pondersoa steak house right off the highway.
a 37 year old man was walking out with his female companion, and he was hit by a single bullet to the abdomen.
they closed off route 95 entirely.

A Decision Has Been Made
by Sentinel inthe decision does not come directly from me.
it comes from being married and having to do things sometimes that keep peace and harmony flowing.. it is time for me say goodbye to all of you here.
first let me thank all of you that have connected with me.

The Blessings of Owning A Pet
by Sentinel inguess what?
today we went to a local pet store, where they have these homeless animals, especially kittens brought in every weekend for a few hours to be adopted out.. we got there at a bit after two, and they were packing up to leave for the day.
but, we had seen a cute kitten and the lady who takes care of these animals in transit, stayed so we could pick out the one we wanted.. mind you, this was one of those spur of the moment decisions.
