    I handed mine to the cong's three elders the last meeting I went to (just for that purpose) as well as sent it thru mail to the CO...


    I don't know if the same elders even go to the same hall anymore, it's been years. How do you find out the elders in the hall? Is it ok to just mail it to the hall or is it better to actually take copies to the next meeting and distribute them?

    Wow - I can't believe I didn't see this before! that is SOME letter. I was touched by your sincerity and clarity as i so often am by the things you say.

    It isn't about how you feel or think, it is about what you show, what people can see. A terrible way to live. I can't imagine who would want allegiance like that. Based on fear of rejection and rooted in denial of your own growth, discovery and progression.

    This is such a good explanation - this makes the letter. It is so incisive. I can feel them tremble a little as the truth of that hits home before they shrug it off and rationalise it as they undoubtedly will.

    Awesome my dear. Just like you.

    WOW. Just wow, MisA. This is beautiful. This is from your heart, and yet not bitter or angry, just like others have pointed out. It reads like Ray Franz's stuff: factual, heartfelt, logical, to the point, impossible to argue.

    GOOD ON YOU, GIRL. I'm so proud of you. I wish and hope for all the best. I have love in my heart for you, Girl.

    I was just getting ready to get off here and get some work done when I'd seen you commented on my thread... .

    PS: It's good to see you around- don't go getting too many jobs now, we need you around here more often.

    I agree with the others who said that your letter was heartfelt, to the point and not a "hate" letter.

    I DAed 14 years ago to make a clean break - not that I did something to warrant a DFing. I took back control and I didn't want to be bothered by them. That's just me. Others desire to fade or whatever else they choose. I certainly don't hold that against anyone or think lesser of them.

    I send you a big hug and kiss,

    Juni PS And here I thought that was your little one in your avatar...... that's cute.

    Well done, Mis. It captured the underlying sadness of it all.
