by cabasilas instories from my bethel pilgrimage.
i've wanted to put some of these memories into words for quite awhile, if only to help me remember my experiences.

Good news ,My son has researched the witnesses on his own !
by troubled mind inover the past three years i have dropped a few points about why i am no longer attending meetings .
nothing in depth .. i did stress alot of it was due to never feeling good enough , the emotional pressure to follow organizational rules over my own conscience and my personal objection of how education is discouraged .
i also have shared with my kids their whole life that when i was raised ,armegeddon fears were rammed down my throat ,something i refused to do to them .. i have worried excessivly how my older two sons would respond to me once they realized i am never going back .. well my son came home for a visit to go out and celebrate my birthday this weekend !

Did you feel like you made a difference?
by purplesofa ini have been reading the courage to give, inspiring stories of people who triumphed over tragedy to make a difference in the world.. .
millard fuller's, founder of habitat for humanity, story is in this book.. he became a millionaire and in the process of working too much was faced with losing his wife.
we need to give it away and make ourselves available for whatever god wants us to do.

Am I a Rebel Without a Cause?
by wobble ini suppose the first answer i will get is,"well something must have caused you",but my point is that being born in to the jw's,all my life,or rather the 58 years i was in,as soon as someone told me what to do i thought "why should i?".
i now find that,apart from rejecting nearly all jw views,i am saying to myself "should i?
" to things that people want me to do.. do you find yourself much more positive since leaving?

because my mtb is on blocks so to speak, i had to ride my road bike so the shocks didn't dampen the bump.

So Far So Good, Here

it seems that as long as we follow the spirit of the rules in this forum, we can co-exist pretty well.
it's nice to have the "newbies" back on the site.
