Finding Happiness in Life
by perfect1 inthere are many stories on jwn about the heartbreak of losing ones family to the wtbts.
but after a few years out, people do seem to get their lives back.. i was wondering if anyone wants to share about finding happiness once outside the org- how has you life improved or been enriched by starting over?.
what do you cherish the most that would have been impossible, not allowed, or unthinkable as a jw?.

How do you feel about birthdays and Christmas now?
by Chariklo ini wonder...for those of you who were brought up as a jw or who have been "in" for many years, how do you feel about birthdays and christmas and celebrations in general now?.
the indoctrination/brainwashing is very strong.
once you are out, or, perhaps, still in but totally disillusioned and sure that it is all a lie, not the truth, do you find that you are determined to celebrate like mad to make up for what you missed, or do you find you have a lingering sense of guilt, however irrational you may now think it is?.
