Ahhb the Kingdom Hall library.
Its my favourite room. The room that set me free. The room that will forever hold a special place in my heart. The room where I was disfellowshiped!
well, it looks like the axe has finally fallen on our kh library.
during a deep clean of the local kh, a brother suddenly informed everyone 'whikst cleaning' that all the old books including bound volumes of the watchtower etc was to be chucked in the skip.. from what i heard, some were taken aback by this and quite annoyed that no announcement was made; that no one was given the choice of taking some of these books home to keep.
i mean the entire collection of studies in the scriptures and others that go back an entire century.

looking back over my life, the only thing that i can say i truly enjoyed as a jw was meeting and becoming friends with a number of jws who were fine musicians and had experienced various measures of success in what used to be called the "music business.

i have to say that i’m not enjoying the xmas season.
i have no emotional ties and i’m spending money that i have not set aside for xmas during a slow work season for my trade.. i’m not happy about it, because it’s foolish to spend money when you aren’t making any.

I feel ya data dog. Im in groundworks. We make no money this time of year.
But i do love xmas and it brings me alot of joy to give my kids an amazing xmas the kind i wanted as a born in.
Dont do it if you dont want to mate. Youl find the majority of people wont mind.
