    I haven't posted in a while, it's just that i've been so busy with my new life!! I'm so glad i left the org, and so is my brother. I feel so much happier, i'm at peace, i don't have that feeling like something's missing anymore. And I've made new friends who are great people. I have a new job that i'm loving. And I celebrated the new year for the first time :P That was a lot of fun ^^. My birthday is coming up and I'm curious about that date from my new perspective.

    I know it feels this way because everything is new to me, but deep inside I know that even if things become less intense in time, there's no way I'll ever want to go back to the pain and repression i felt as a witness.

    My parents and witness brothers are respecting our decission and won't tell on us. So our fade is working great and our respective elders have stopped chasing after us.

    I just really wanted to let you all know I'm having the time of my life, and THANK YOU for helping me make the right choice when I was confused. You guys inspired me :)

    So I wish the best of all for you and hope you have a great year ^^

    Ele-lux, i was thinking of you today and now I see your post. Excellent, I'm truly happy for you. May your lives be filled with such peace and happiness!

    I haven't left formally yet, but it'll be soon. I think that even if we won't experience activities like New year or birthdays like the first time celebrating them; we'll just enjoy the beauty of living normal lives, free from judgment and man-made restrictions.

    This board is inspiring for sure, and it's helping me so much.

    I wish you a great year!

    It is excellent that you are happy and optimistic about your future, it helps people like me to read other's post "no regrets" for leaving the organization....it really WILL be okay . Nice to have family "on board" as well- Happy New Year (a first for me too)
