If I had stayed in JW I would have been dead a LONG time ago. I would either have committed suicide or I would have died of an alcohol related illness. There was no hope.

Now that you realize,that Your Life has an Expiration Date..Do you Appreciate Life more?.............................
Yes I enjoy it more.
I dont waste my time going to meetings.
I waste it posting here and doing other things.
Which are my choice.
It's always good to stop and appreciate life and have an attitude of gratitude.

That's so true. And you know my mother was always that way even long after she stopped going to meetings. But I think in some ways the JW religion suited her. She was always waiting for life to happen. And then she died.

What I do appreciate is not having to waste my time going from boasting sessions to field circus and back. And not being able to enjoy any of the sights and sounds of the seasons--the flowers and trees coming into leaf in spring, the flowers and fireworks of summer, the leaves changing color and the pumpkins and scarecrows of fall, and the snow and decorations (and Christmas music) of winter. It was always about that next door--damn the flowers, snow, and leaves changing color or coming in.

You got that right. Being raised a Witness to me was like slowly becoming a plastic man, not having no feelings of my own no real nothing of feeling good with out having to search the WT for permission or run to the elders for this and that. My life and that of my kids was a real farce.
