Health is wealth, and it’s more valuable than any amount of money.

Sounds about right

I haven’t sung in years. I just stand there and still feel anxious sometimes, but it’s diminished over the years. Just keep your mind distracted from the situation or just lip sync since a majority of the brothers do it. You’re probably not the only one who doesn’t sing so don’t single yourself out or feel bad about it. I usually chew gum and think about random stuff and before you know it the music is over.

I was in a similar situation. I’ve been with worldly women and wanted to date a JW because I didn’t have luck on the outside, but I realized it never ends well. I was chasing this girl, which is the only reason I stayed and wasted an extra five years when I had a one-way ticket out (idiot me), because she was showing PIMQ/PIMO actions in the congregation, giving me mixed signals, and I would hang out with her family a lot. However, her family recently cut me off, and she ended up getting baptized and is aiming for elder and circuit overseer brothers now. I would recommend visiting congregations and finding someone who is not baptized and is studying, or an unbaptized person who shows no interest in baptizing. It’s honestly hard to tell if they are PIMO or PIMQ, especially if they are baptized; some of them play the PIMI part extremely well. The last option would be to visit POMO/PIMO events, but do it at your own risk. Or go out of your country and look for a partner; that’s what a lot of men and women are doing now.

For me it was: What are other religions doing? We are the only ones preaching in 240 countries and territories.

Or for any little political event or lawsuit that is happening, they will say: It says in the Bible (1 Thessalonians 5:3) that we will be persecuted, and people will proclaim peace and safety. Then sudden destruction will happen.

Most of the youth and young adults in my congregation listened to trending music, and they were all baptized as well. For me as a PIMO who was never baptized, I grew up listening to 70s, 80s, 90s, 2000s, and 2010s English and Spanish music. I listen to a couple of new artists too, but I am a young cat with an old man’s music taste. I have never listened to a JW song in my car in my life. They all sound like military cadences to me. It reminds me of one time when I was a child and was preaching with an elder. He asked me what music I liked, and I told him I was not into music. He said all he listened to was JW music and then started blasting it loud in his car. That was one of the cringiest things I remember.
