they were truly fine people in many senses, a bit younger than my folks, and very charismatic.
the place was new bedford, massachusetts, u.s.a.. it wasn't long before you realized that the bridgmans ate differently than the rest of us.

I didn't ask to be born
by rebel8 inthat was my response to my jw mother when she was interrogating me as a teen as to why i was depressed.
she barraged me with scriptures commanding me to be joyful in j's service, saying it was wrong of me to feel unsatisfied with my life and sad....so not only was i sad, i was committing a wrong against the almighty for feeling so.. my mother would question me as to why i was sad, and i'd say, "what do i have to be happy about?
i have few friends and little to look forward to in life.

HATING JEHOVAH'S WITNESSES
by marianne infrom what i have gathered, you all were once jw's and now hate them or the organization?
do you still believe in jehovah and love jehovah?
i have to admit i dont like, actually i rather dislike, some of the sisters in my congregation and i know that's wrong of me, but some of them really think they are better than me and are quite judgemental.

Children of the 80's!
by MelbaToast inalright, i admit, i was a child of the 80s (or what i can remember) but the real reason for this thread is i have noticed that there is quite a few of people on this site that are close to me in age or just a little bit younger or older.
i will be 28 in june.
i think that this period in my life is a deep questioning period, because at younger ages i didnt give a flip about anything jw or ex-jw for that matter.
