Okay is it cause you stopped believing? Do you get to see them often...the 3 little angels? Do you mind me asking? Cause according to MIB I am prolific so yeah!
My lack of belief was a significant contributing factor. As far as I was concerned it wasn't the biggie, but it was a bigger thing for her, still being, on the face of it, a TBM.
My kids all asked to live with me. For the most part they do. 2 of them are still actively involved in church, one is not.
I don't mind you asking at all. I won't go into great detail and give away too much IRL info here.
IRL: In Real Life--giving out information that can ID you I got married pretty quick after the mission. To my credit, I didn't trip over a gumball machine at the airport and propose to it. It was about 2 years after. So my oldest is 19. We started trying to replenish the earth right from the get go. She still attends church regularly. It makes her happy, so good for her.
Yes because this was the month that I reached boiling point. I just cannot take it anymore and well I have been venting proper in a place where I don't have to censure myself!
hmmm I wonder what else I can give myself wholly to?
I am self-employeed so I do what i want. My business involves listening to others, so I listen, then church I sit and listen.
I am often alone, so yeah looks like I needed to be heard?
I really needed help to figure out why I was so miserable. I was worried that I am nuts and the church is true I am the bad seed.
Clearly they are!

Finding this place is probably a great release for you. When I figured things out, I didn't have a ready made community like this. I wish I had. RFM allows you to think out loud and blow off steam. And *most* of the time they are not too judgmental.
Release...ha ha ha ha more like a $#%@ storm. I am learning so much.
It gave me the courage to stand by my conviction that The Church Of Jesus Christ Of Latter-Day Saints in just a souped up MLM, a mismanaged corporate entity!
So now I am free. Next is the letter! Whoooo hoooo!
Ever work for an MLM? I did for a time. I can't tell you how many people I saw get screwed. I can't list how many did it only because they wanted to maintain good relations with existing social networks (family). That's what MLMs are; an exploitation of a social networks to sell a product. It's legal so long as they are selling a product.
See, a pyramid scheme without a product is called a Ponzi Scheme, but a pyramid with a product is called "direct marketing," or a "home-based business" or, "residual income" or "a rose by another name that has a product so it's not a Ponzi."
Call it what you will. MLMs as I see them, are unethical and most should be illegal. However, until Congress and local law enforcement both have the resources and the wherewithal to combat unethical business practices like these they will exist and continue to dupe those who know no better because unlawful and wrong are (sadly) not always the same thing.
As a caveat, this is merely my opinion about MLMs in general and is directed an no business in particular.
I find myself disturbed because TSCC looks too much like Mary KAY
Boxes of useless inventory and no sales skills to sell the purchases while you run up the Credit Card, and getting harped on by your upline [I have never been with MK, but I get the whole thing, these are the women I work with to help them end the abuse]!
who said anything about disqualifing anything???!!! and MOST of the people that visit this site lurk!! nothing wrong with lurking or not! and the age question comes from your boundless energy!! :)
