when i go to get my hair cut, i have a series of very specific lengths that different parts of my hair are supposed to be cut.
today i went to new place and told the girl exactly what to do... this long here... that long there... watch out for the tricky cowlick over here... etc.... did she listen?
no.. instead she got this very intense look on her face and started going at it.
Else, you've got a great hair; it probably looks better than you feel. I hope you didn't pay her, though. A friend said to me once, trying to get through my tears from a really bad haircut, "it's only hair. Give it a couple of weeks..."
Can you go back to a former barber/stylist next time?
good afternoon everyone.. happy wednesday!!.
when you were a witness did any of you know that the society actually teaches that jesus is not your mediator unless you are one of the 144,000??
she said to him, "that is apostate talk, where did you get that??
Yes, I knew it and, yes, it bothered me. I felt as though I was left out, exposed, without access to "god" in prayer. I never did reconcile it. It was one of those things you're supposed to take in faith but that doesn't help.
I think many in the congregation didn't realize that was a jw teaching.

rita clement (far right) and jennifer difilippo lead the way while handing out pamphlets in gloucester township.
No, but she has it right! Give them enough rope and they'll hang themselves. (jw's, I mean.)
there 's been a lot said on this board lately about revealing our feelings and doubts to friends, family, and that "reasonable elder".
well, i just wanted to share something with you guys.. a while back, i had what i thought was an innocent conversation with someone very near and dear to me.
all was calm and rational, questions were asked in a spirit of wanting to understand.
Well said!
what dessert should i serve with lasagne?
making beef lasagne, green salad and garlic bread.
stuck at the dessert, don't want something too rich and heavy.
A scoop of sorbet in a champagne flute, a bit of sliced, inseason fruit, pour asti supmanti over, serve. This is a light dessert for something like lasagna, and quite elegant.
it's official; they read the letter tonight that puts forth the new procedure.
if you find an expelled person in the field or are studying with one, you are no longer permitted to give them lit.
presumably the elders make a decision if an expelled one is regularly attending meetings, but only they can give them lit.
So how is this dub's only issue going to work? Do you get it from your book study conductor? Must not be lying around the lit counter.
Wonder if there will be a divide between those who love being in the secret half and those who think everyone should have the info.
just curious....as i can't quite figure out why they do not take part in thanksgiving.
it's such a lovely family holiday.
thanks for any info.. lavendar .
Because they didn't think of it first, therefore, it must be pagan.
first of all this isnt my my big plan that i plan to reveal later this week.
i just got off the phone with my brother, and got the shock of a lifetime.
the old kingdom hall that we attended as teenagers apparently is gonna be demolished sometime in the future.
If there's money to be made, the wts will do it. They'll take the money from the state for the building and property, and then make the local's raise money to build a new kh. Or take out a loan with interest.
When will they know learn?
we recently hired a sales person for our company.
she is a friend of a a friend of the owners.
it's a small company and a lot of the time i'm alone upstairs in our office.
If they do let you go, get a temp job until you're ready to leave the country. No amount of money is worth your life!
today was the first day of three for this year's "follow the christ" district convention.. for the first time in as many years as i can go back, the theme of this program was jesus christ.. most of the program was ok. the talks considered jesus, his life and his works.
there was nothing about the talks that i considered insulting or controlling.. could this be it?
could the society really be going jesus-centric?.
How can they say the number is dwindling.
Because they've believed it for years; because part of their "faith" was based on this evidence; because they're taught to believe two opposing "truths" and not see the impossibility of it.
Some of the older ones, ones in the "truth" for decades must be suffering a quiet desperation. They were never going to have to die and yet they see the end. Still, they have have to present a positive, happy face.
