This week my husband and I had the privilege of meeting Salud and his wife. To be honest, I was really nervous about meeting another ex-JW. I wasn't sure what to expect...what would we talk about? What would they be like? What a wonderful experience for me! They are lovely, warm people and we talked for hours. (It was actually hard to leave)! I now know how important for us to meet each other in person when we have the chance!
Hearing another person's experience face to face is so encouraging. It also makes you realize you're not the only person out there who has had a bad experience... We talked about ways to help each other, and other ex-JW's that are new. I also know I have made a couple of new friends that I will have for a long time. I think a lot of people on this board have gotten together for events like Apostafest or just dinner. For those of you that haven’t, when you’re ready, give it a try…
