I was raised in the "troof". However, I did have a few "worldly friends and neighbors, teachers that questioned "things". I wish I had listened to them.

Sad news from Maui
by Makena1 inwe went to our favorite beach, met up with some of our local friends.
we don't have much in the way of details - but heard some devasting news that ari (well known to seattle area exjw's and i am sure by many on the board) killed himself sometime over last weekend.
he was so excited about moving to maui, and starting a new life here.

I never met Putternut but I new him from the boards. I remember his art and "poetry" at Slippy's. He was very talented. I especially remember his "story". A story I could relate to as I am divorced from my JW ex-wife and I have a ten year old son I fight to stay close with. I read his posts about his daughters with keen interest. I hope to avoid losing my son to the cult but yeah never know. My cousin "the apostate" killed himself as well a few years back. I understand the pain. I will miss Putternut....
RIP......

NYCKID, you sound like me. So many interests I can't decide what I want to do for sure. The things you are interested in are similar to me as well. I really like the idea of marine bilogy and am also taking up SCUBA diving this summer. I'm sure you and I will figure it out. I figure I just need to get into it and get my feet wet. Good luck to you!

I'm starting college this Thursday. I can only handle 6 credits in the evening right now but hey, I figure if I could spend all that time going to meetings and studying for them why not use that same time and energy to go to college. I don't have a major yet but am in the Liberal Arts program. Hopefully, in 8-10 years I will have a B.A. and do something I really enjoy. Plus, I LOVE to learn!
