Richie's Random Thoughts: Moral Ambiguity
by RichieRich inin high school, it was sad day when "beloved" by toni morrison hit my desk.
the book was thick and worn, with a bright purple cover that was sure to smile up at me mockingly from my bag whenever i looked in it.. the teacher who dropped it on my desk was a wise woman.
she was young, and had just finished her phd.

Punished by our “friends” for the letter we sent.
by LennyinBluemont insome of you may have read our exit letter from august of last year which we sent to about 50 of our close jw "friends", many of whom we had been very close to for decades.
we just told them what we had learned regarding the un scandal and provided all the documentation.
we never disassociated ourselves, nor have we been disfellowshipped.

my profile
by BlackSwan of Memphis ini live in mi and was raised a jw.
i left officially in 05, but my thinking had evolved before then.. if you're at this board, you're probably asking questions, or have asked questions and realized that the answers are not what you had thought they were.. if you're looking at this profile, you probably read one of my posts.. i suppose there is only one thing i would want anyone to know:.
it won't replace the years you believe you lost to the organization.. live your life that you have now and enjoy it.. often this means making a new life.
