What is your worst fear?
by Scully ina recent death in my family triggered my worst fear - as irrational as it may sound - into a very real possibility.. let me explain: as a global culture, we simply accept that when someone dies, those who care about them will want to gather and offer a meaningful tribute to the person and those who survive them.
with regard to my recently deceased family member - her own children decided against holding a memorial service for her surviving family, which included two children and their respective spouses, eight grandchildren, and seven great grandchildren.
yes, we are spread out over 2000 miles.

How much do JW's RESPECT their kids?
by anti-absolutism ini strongly believe that it is very difficult to be a good parent in the borg!!
if you think about it, the parents are basically trained to look at their kids as if they are lesser human beings than them..... you know the old head of the house crap!!.
i know from my personal experience, i was df'd in 1992, but i never made the definite decision to never go back until 1997. .

JW's - Better than others? Or ashamed?
by freedom96 ini have read quite a few posts that describe witnesses as haughty, snotty, thinking they were so much better than others because supposedly they had the truth.. i try to remember, and i don't recall seeing that as much as many of them being downright depressed, shy, and appeared to be ashamed.. myself, for one, was never one to announce to anyone that i was a witness.
certainly never held it over others, for i was always embarrassed.
the idea never crossed my mind.. there of course were always the ones that thought that they were better than others, but i always chalked them up to being that way regardless of what religion they belonged to.. what did you notice?

Mrs. T's big adventure.
by JeffT insince we have been married debbie and i have never traveled very much, for a number of reasons (many borg related).
when younger, i went to mexico and europe, but although shes always wanted to see more of the world, until 1990, with the exception of a funeral in nyc, debbie had never been outside washington, idaho, california and bc.
in 1990 my dad was awarded half of the nobel prize in medicine and we got to spend a week in stockholm.

The Perfect Witness
by JH inwe all know brothers and sisters, who never miss a meeting.
even if there is a snow storm, or any good reason to miss, they will always be there.
every saturday in the field service, and always saying yes to the elders.. did these people fall on your nerves, because they were so devout?.
