Praises the WT for JW apps but sneers at members with higher education, in 2018
by ohnightdivine ini guess we all know the answer why this still happens... but really, why?.
just a month ago i was having some conversation with this sister and since i'm on inactive status, she was trying to get me to download all those jw apps because the "work is speeding up" and i shouldn't be missing out on anything from the org.
especially when they come up with all these "provisions" that intend only to benefit the members.

Back after 4 years!!
by ohnightdivine ingosh i can't believe i would still be able to log in to this site after around 4 years.
i simply just forgot my password and got the lightbulb back in my head a few minutes ago.
not sure if anyone can still remember me (i was just one of those occasional passers-by a few years ago with some relatively depressing experience after waking up to ttatt).. in the last 4 years, i:.

I'm afraid I'd be single for life
by ohnightdivine inthis is quite embarrassing for me to share, but as a 30+ year old single female i have lingering doubts as to whether i can still meet a decent man and get married.. you all know how difficult it is for sisters to find an appropriate partner in the congregation.. and now, all the more so that i've learned ttatt.
i still am bound by low self-esteem, and i do have trust issues, especially with men.
i am very lonely and so i just keep myself busy with work to avoid depression (although it is also a great source of stress).. any other single females out there having similar thoughts?.

I need a good cry but I can't. Please help?
by ohnightdivine inbesides being overworked and overstressed almost everyday in the past few months,.
i've had to deal with a 'broken heart', insecurities with my physical appearance (gained a lot of weight),.
and being lonely because i started distancing myself from the 'congregation', i just want to cry, sob, and bawl out here in my bedroom.

How to find joy in the ministry, according to one elder
by ohnightdivine inhe said that having a goal is the most important, since we do not want to waste our time and become depressed when going out in the ministry.. and what else could be better than setting a goal to, say, distribute xx number of magazines during that day?!.
in this way we could feel contented and joyful in service.. .
how profound!

I feel sorry for just about everyone else.. even the elder's wife
by ohnightdivine ini've been busy with with being busy after knowing ttatt.
after this sunday's meeting i was invited over by one congregation elder's wife to an afternoon coffee.
we're not very close because of the age gap but we've "known" each other for so many years now, being in the same congregation.. she is like the anchor of the group.

What do you miss about your pre-JW years?
by ohnightdivine ini'll start with my experiences during childhood up to high school years... i was raised in a typical catholic family (not very adherent, just keeping up with traditions but it was all that we knew).. just to let you know, i am alone in the "truth".. 1) short prayers with my mom before going to sleep.
it was short and i think that as a child, god was more real to me than when i became a jw.
i would say, "dear god.
