to my friends here....
by alamb inas a loyal jw, i was ready for my whole world to come to an earth-shattering halt and for life as i knew it to be gone...at the hand of my loving god.
i only remember a life of grey, shades of grey punctuated by flashes of color and emotion which i quickly prayed to get through and to not be tempted by the colors i had seen.
i viewed these as a sign of spiritual weakness and dove back into studying and praying and a living death i called "spiritual paradise".
