My dad was visiting me from Holland recently, he is full on, 76 years old , felt so proud of himself on how many awake magazines he had "placed" on the plane over, I asked him "where did you place them dad? In the seat pocket in front of you? I think he is learning not to talk Jdub talk in front of me, as I dont hold back anymore to him and while he was here he left a family book in my bookshelf, with a little message in it for me and my fiance, it said "you may think you dont need this now, but one day you will". They get off so much on their literature, its very sad really, why cant they just get by with the bible. After he had left, I had a moment of anger from something that had happened at a recent JW funeral, I went home and threw the books he'd put in my shelf, along with my insight on the scriptures and a couple of other publications i had "faithfully" hung on to, turfed them in the bin, except for a bible I have had for years. At that moment I had finally told myself that I would never set foot into a Kingdom Hall ever again. Anyway at the airport seeing him off I told him I loved him and he said "do YOU?" I said of course I do, but just stop preaching to me. That was the last thing I said.
take care all
