Do you believe in Love?
by freeflyingfaerie inmaybe you are an atheist.. maybe you are agnostic.. you have left a cult, left behind an entire belief system, complete with detailed instructions on how to live..rules to follow for every aspect of your very life.
you know it was a big lie.. you are now naked, staring at your soul.
just you, just your own thoughts, just your own voice, your own feelings.

Do you remember the moment that you stopped believing that it was "The Truth"?
by freeflyingfaerie inwas there one incident or epiphany that struck you hard?
or was it a slow...gradual awakening (no pun)?.
my coming out of the jw coma (as i like to call it) began at a family rendezvous in the beautiful florida gulf coast.

~Moving forward..searching for a good therapist~
by freeflyingfaerie inalright, that's it!
after writing this, i am on a serious search for a good therapist~.
i've been coming here on and off for a little over a year now(wish i had found it sooner) ...for validation and clarity in my feelings about how hurtful the religion is...so i don't feel so alone about it, and so i don't feel like i am losing my mind~.

Personal Paradigm Shifts
by freeflyingfaerie indo you find yourself, since leaving the religion, having an exhorbitant amount of personal paradigm shifts?.
sometimes i question my sanity.. i feel so open to ideas...don't know where to start sometimes.. don't feel dogmatic about too many things...maybe feel that it just 'isn't for me'...at least for right now (lol).... but in all of this, i never tire of these epiphanies and spontaneous feelings of gratefulness and love.. .
does anyone else out there experience this ?.

So, I'm probably not an Infidel, per se..
by freeflyingfaerie init's becoming apparent that there are a zillion different names for a zillion different beliefs/non-beliefs out there.
without pigeon-holing myself under a particular definition, there are a few of which i can pretty closely identify with for the time being.
maybe agnostic, and then also appreciating the freethought pansies.

~Close to Others..Close to My Self~
by freeflyingfaerie ini am using this as my very own personal therapy session to express some of what has been swimming around in my head~.
it may not take much shape, i'll be letting it flow.... there is nothing like feeling understood and accepted and loved for who you are.
but that's a difficult thing to really feel when there is little or no history with a person.
