How Did Your Adolescence Go?
by Englishman ini was chatting to an old aquaintance about some of the weid and wonderful conflicts that i had gone through when i left the jw's.
she works as a therapist of some renown locally, so i was interested in her viewpoint.
she said that, in her opinion, anyone who's adolescent development was overly restricted by, for example, their religion, would have to clear away the mental stuff that had been held back during this critical time.

My poetry for you to enjoy , ( i hope )
by wildfire inbehind the walls of darkness, can the light shine thru???.
will our minds allow us to seek the cherished memories or relive the tortured days of youth.. do we dare to give up a piece of our sanity to envision a happier time.......... the tears are real, the fears keep us from exposing our vulnerbility,,, do we risk becoming a pawn...... the clock ticks away,, the stage is set..,,,will our performance be the one they want to see... and if its not, does that mean life was just a game to be won or lost????????.
behind the walls we see things more clearly if only for a moment.....we dare to expose our lives to people unknown to us.......... will the light be a source of comfort or another roadblock meant for a meaningless search of unanswered question?????????

I need a female weight loss buddy....support help!
by scootergirl inokay......first of the year.......goals to be made and achieve (hopefully).. one of my goals is to drop a few pounds and firm a few places.
i know better than to get any support from my husband ("oh, you look fine, honey")....so i was wondering if there is anybody (preferrably female) on the board that would be interested in supporting me/and me supporting them (weight loss goal).
i have read of a few females that are trying to lose a few extra......so i am pretty sure i am not alone.. i am trying to focus on eating more healthy and cutting down on snacks.

In defense of the Borg....
by Thunder Rider ini must say that i am troubled by those of you who have likened the jw's to the borg.
the collective is nothing like the organization.
the borg assimilate and improve themselves as a whole.
