Welcome zerimar-
Glad you are here and thanks for sharing your story. I left it when I was 17, and I'm still making up for lost time! Here you'll find a connection. You can laugh, cry, rant, and rave!! You'll no longer have to worry about being judged!!!
Pull up your keyboard and a chair (and maybe a beer or 3)--you're among family now!!
blessed be,
shelley
Welcome Zerimar!
Hi Zerimar. Welcome to the board.

Welcome, z.
Glad to see that education and the internet really does accomplish what the Witlesses most fear it will do: free another mind from the web of JW destruction! Welcome. Glad you're here.
Welcome from Dallas.
You have already taken the most critical step toward self-discovery. You set out to start an educational process. This is going to reap great rewards professionally and personally. I am afraid that it may also create some real eye-openers about this religion.
I share pretty much the same story; it just happened for me over 30 years ago.
Good LUCK, I salute you as a proper, thinking, self aware HUMAN BEING!
Wow - didn't used to be able to say that...

Welcome to the group, good to have you posting. It's great that you went out and worked for your career goal. Not such a long time in the scheme of things.
I was raised a witness and left when I was 21, for many years I felt deep down that I was the problem, the black sheep, a minority in leaving...............
now I know how many people have felt the same way as me. This is such a good place to learn, share, support, and get support. Stick around and share some more!
Best wishes

Hello,
Welcome and good for you for pursuing your goals. I wish I had enough sense to figure out this organization at 29.

welcome to the board. Please stick around.
I too got my degree late and had to go back and mis-spend my well spent youth!
Welcome! Be glad you are obtaining your education now before getting tied down with family & kids. I need to go back to school, but so far have only occasionally taken a night class. I plan to take more, but a little at a time since I have a family and full time job.
Sometimes I so resent all those stupid talks and Botchtower articles on how evil obtaining further education is!
Zerimar,
Congratulations on the growth. Never too late. Glad you're here. I can't wait to hear all that you have to say.
