The colour of grey
by beaker ing,day all from sydney.
i've been dropping in to the board since being d'fd a month ago and have been very encouraged by the posts and they way everyone has been able to move on since leaving the collective.. being a 5th generation, it was always very hard for me to imagine life life outside the truman show bubble.
having a huge extended family who are all believers means that i now have virtually nil social contacts.. soon to be divorced, the only contact i have with my past life is weekend visits from my 7 year old boy and 9 year old girl.

Do hours in preaching affect social status?
by new light indeep down, i guess i know the answer to this one, but what the heck?
is it common for someone to have a diminished jw social life for no other reason than being a low-hour publisher?
not to seem conceited, but at the hall i was always smiling and quick-witted (i believe), talked to all types happily, gave good talks and demos, dressed well, smelled good, etc.

Lost
by Puternut infeeling lost today.. it's the weekend, and i will be once again going home to an empty house, where my children won't be welcoming me home.

Why I don't celebrate Easter. Warning: pity party going on in this thread
by CeriseRose ini think back to when i was a kid...a non-jw one.
easter was the time of new dresses, chocolate bunnies (you had to bite the ears off first to make sure it was the solid kind), ham with the little cloves stuck right in it, and peaceful family time.. during my jw years i didn't 'celebrate' it, but it slowly but surely became a 'family' time.
my flesh and blood sister (jw) and all my step family (non-jw) would congregate at the parents' place and we'd play games and eat and laugh.
