  Sassy,
  
  You said...
  
  Say what you want, but for a black man to date a white woman - especially a blond is a status symbol.
  
  that is the one thing that I don't like... and yet I know it to be true.. even among JWs I hear...
  
  Thanks.
  
  You said it well.
  
  That's my point.

  Oh please guys.
  
  We have to be so politically correct when we go about our lives.
  
  But for once, we're on a BB and we're anonymous.
  
  So even now, even anonymous. Do we have to pretend we don't see the truth???
  
  I'm not white and I prefer dark hair white girls.
  
  And I'm not saying that there is no such thing as a pretty girl in any race.
  
  But a long hair blond with big boobs walk into a room and they will get all the attention of both guys and jealous girls.
  
  Don't belittle me for telling the truth.
  
  Yes, there are communities in where minorities rule.
  
  But the most powerful people in the world are white males.
  
  That is undisputable.
  
  The other thing is, white women for minorities are viewed as a trophy.
  
  Say what you want, but for a black man to date a white woman - especially a blond is a status symbol.
  
  I didn't invent this, so don't get mad at me. But it's true and you all know it.
  
  Be mad at this or furious. But don't get made at me. I'm telling the truth here.
  
  And if you don't think I am, tell me where I'm wrong.

  I'll say it because everyone else is afraid to say it.
  
  White people rule the world.
  
  So it's ok to make fun of them, so to speak, because they are on top of the food chain PERIOD.
  
  Blacks and other minorities in this capitalist world can't be made fun of UNLESS BY THEIR OWN, otherwise it would be picking on them.
  
  You could say anything you want, but this is the truth.
  
  And it's also "ok" to make fun of blonds, because pound for pound, there is nothing prettier than a blond girl.
  
  If anyone wants to get upset about my views on this, then I believe it's the intention of the thread.
  
  But it's the truth and your lying to yourself if you don't think this is true.

  Danny,
  
  Glad that you wrote in.
  
  You're a legend. Keep it up.
  
  Mostly guys, I have to say that I was in a perpetual state of guilt.
  
  I didn't even calculate all those things like Morning text, meditation all all that.
  
  You figure...
  
  8 hours sleep
  1 getting "ready" time
  8 hour work day.
  2 hours (total - breakfast, lunch and dinner).
  
  That's 19 hours as it is.
  
  You figure. That leaves 5 hours in the day.

  Hey guys,
  
  
  I was a Reg Pioneer along with my wife for 9 years.
  
  
  During this time, we honestly tried to do EVERYTHING by the book.
  
  
  But we would always feel guilty because in some way we were ALWAYS falling short. This starting the whole guilt thing.
  
  
  But it just occured to me, is it even POSSIBLE to carry the load???
  
  
  Does anyone want to offer a guess-timation on whether it is even possible in a months time to do all the following...
  
  
  1) All meetings.
  
  
  2) STUDY for meeting.
  
  
  3) Personal Study.
  
  
  4) Congregation Responsibilities (average MS - Say Accounts Servant)
  
  
  5) Read their average portion of Assemblies NEW RELEASES.
  
  
  6) Field Service (Pioneer.)
  
  
  7) KH Cleaning (One time a month)
  
  
  8) Coming 1/2 early before the meetings and staying 1/2 hour later to associate.
  
  
  I'm sure there's other things I didn't mention.
  
  
  Any thoughts???

  Suicidal Thoughts

  by Obviously Secret in

  2. friends

  sorry to put such a crappy subject on here but today and like this whole week has been pretty bad.. right when i went to the 5th grade i started getting i was already in the suicidal mood of things and always thought about killing myself or killing a whole bunch of other people.

  all during elementary school kids picked on me since i had a habbit of crawling into corners and crying or just sitting and rocking in those corners.

  i couldn't talk to anybody, i stuttered and i threw up every time a person talks to me for too long that pushed away alot of people they always talked about me throwing up all the time and everything.

  Secret,
  
  It's ok.
  
  There are plenty of people out there like us.
  
  I tried it twice.
  
  The last time, the police came looking for me.
  
  It's ok.
  
  Couple of sugestions.
  
  1) I am on Paxil. It works great for me.
  
  2) Think FREEDOM. That has helped me tremendously.
  
  When I say think Freedom, what I mean is this...
  
  The day it gets SO bad again that I want to commit suicide, I start making plans to move somewhere. ANYWHERE in the World. And start fresh again.
  
  Ever since I've been thinking that way, I've felt much better.
  
  3) Consider yourself in "recovery mode."
  
  What I mean by that is this...
  
  If you broke your leg, you would be laid up for several days, right?
  
  If you had, God forbit, cancer. You would also have to live your life differently.
  
  Here's the catch that MOST people can't understand (ESPECIALLY the elders when I was going.)
  
  Depression is a REAL DISEASE!!!
  
  Cut yourself a break, because I suspect that Jesus will too.
  
  You are sick.
  
  So make 100 percent allowance for yourself to think how you want. And do what you want.
  
  I'm not going to meetings now, but an example of using this strategy was when I was still going to the meetings.
  
  I would feel so guilty all the time. Missing meetings. No field service.
  
  Finally I thought, HEY. I'M SICK!!!
  
  So I would spend my time relaxing instead.
  
  Takes the guilt away.
  
  Anyway, try some of these things and feel free to message me if you want.
  
  I'm an expert on this topic.

  you be the judge.

  note: the preceding study article also shows an african man in ethnic dress reading the bible; this article concludes with a photo of the same african studying the publications.

  an appeal to the sons of ham?.

  Blondie,
  
  I'm rarely star stuck at someone's insight.
  
  But I have to say that not only do I enjoy your work. It's very much appreciated.
  
  Your views are very helpful for healing.
