I´ve always wondered: How do you get your attendants numbers so fast??? Who do you ask so quickly? Is it announced? We (= congregation Reutlingen west) had our memorial together with 3 other congregations in the assembly hall. I know that those 4 congregations make around 450 - 500 publishers in total, but I have no idea about the total number of attendants. I saw the responsible brothers counting the people, but none of them was from my own congregation, so how could I have the number by the end of the evening?

A very nice gem, thank you (and you have a good eye for noticing that detail in the video!). This also applies to us today. As we are imperfect, it is possible that this desire for "a better lifestyle" arises in us. Then we should keep reminding ourselves that what matters is what is said in Proverbs 10:22: "It is the blessing of Jehovah that makes one rich".

I curse the day this “beard GB update” was published. Just kidding! But seriously: Why hide a handsome face behind a beard? I know that these are all personal preferences and even though I admit that there are exceptions - in my world the general slogan is: “The most beautiful face is a hairless face”

I watched it! And in my case it meant staying up all night (12:30 am to 4:30 am). I took the next day off to sleep. I do this every year. 😁 Yet, I´m not really interested in the commercials, only in the game.

Do you know this version?

Thanks for your concern, sister, but it´s not about friends, it´s a mate I miss. I have uncountable friends, and I truely value all of them.

I like the Beatles, too. Some of my favorite songs are "All you need is love", "Yesterday", "Hey Jude" and "Girl".

I'm watching that, too, it's fun 😁

Mandalorian was cool, but Andor was way to long-winded. The story develops in "turtle speed".

Very nice, Hubi, and so true....thanks for sharing. And greetings "from the neighbourhood" (Reutlingen)

I've tried everything. I've been praying, participating in the ministry, spending time with different friends of the congregation, etc. Nothing helps. I do have a lot of good friends I really appreciate. This is a different kind of loneliness.

Thank you very much, dear sister, for your kind words. Yes, I know Jehovah will eventually rescue me from that pain. I know he has the perfect schedule for everything, so I try my best to wait.

Tremendous loneliness. How do I cope? I don't. I bear it because there's no solution in sight.

Just prooves 1 thing: Life without coffee is possible, but pointless.

Unfortunately, I don´t have any reccomandations, but I would highly appreciate it if you would share your experiences after that trip (or even during the trip, if you want to). I´m always interested in getting to know different places. Let us be part of your trip, if possible, please 😉

Lately I've been neglecting my otherwise consistent low carb diet, so now I want to get back to being more self-disciplined about this. Unfortunately, I'm not very creative when it comes to cooking. To be completely honest: I hate cooking. But it's unavoidable if I want to stick to my healthy diet. Do any of you know any quick and easy low carb recipes that I could cook without too much hassle?

If it is of any comfort to you dear American brothers and sisters, we have this kind of stupidity in Germany, too ↑

Yep. For the first time in years I found a good bargain on Black Friday for something I needed: A new TV. I hardly watch any regular TV channels but mostly streaming services like Netflix, Amazon Prime, Disney+ and - the most important for me personally - DAZN (for sports). It has been over a year now since my old TV started having more and mor technical problems while streaming things. It was already bothering me while I was watching a series, but there´s nothing more annoying than watching an exciting sports event live, and your TV screen is frozen every 5 minutes But I couldn´t afford a new one, so I endured this for over a year. But then I checked this years Black Friday deals, and I really found a good new TV at a great price (more than 50 % off). I´m happy

No, E.T. !

I´ve played "Phase 10" as a kid...and I know that pony, but I never was a fan of it. If I'd had this choice back then, I would probably have opted for either the red racing car or the robot. I've never liked all those typical “ girly stuff”. To be honest, that hasn't changed to this day.
