Finally did it...
by zanex ini finally sent off the 3 page letter to my parents that spelled it out for them...where i was in my life and where they fit into that.
my pop had sent me an email initially that prompted my long-winded response to him.
he opened the door for me to say what i wanted to say and i took it.

update on old jw friend
by zanex inwell as per my email a few weeks ago i met with a jw that is currently attempting to leave the org..it was quite an interesting meeting actually...he is just at the beginning of his departure of leaving the jw's so quite a few of his mannerisms were reminiscint of my own attitudes and perceptions.
it was a good meeting and we will be keeping in touch..its funny..i was straight up with him and told him that i had been having apprehensions about meeting with him and he asked if i trusted him and i was honest i told him no, that just because he and i were once jw's didnt mean that any measure of that trust carried over when i left the org.
i had to explain that to him...it wasnt anything personal but he is still technically a jw..he is still baptized and has not been df'd or da'd...for me that presented a very real issue.

New experience for me..advice, anyone?
by zanex ini have been out of touch with pretty much all of the old jw's that i used to hang around with while in new mexico.
i have been informed that one of those jw's that oddly enough happens to be related to my roommate that i am currently living with is coming to town and i have also been told that he is trying to leave the org and doesnt want to be any part of it anymore but he still has a lot of family in the religion...another twist anyone?
oh yeah he also is "coming out" he is gay.

Easter/Fatherhood
by zanex inthis last weekend was easter and i had the pleasure of spending it with my daughter, my ex and her parents.
they are locals and have been very accomodating with the whole divorce.
the ex-in-laws are still good people and they have good hearts and a mindset that isnt religiously controlling.

zanex retires
by zanex inhis anger...i think that i have gotten to a point where all the anger that i have been holding onto for all of these years is not doing me any good...i actually got into a conversation with my better half in which she told me that she was tired of the constant self-abuse that i put myself through.
i have been df'd for a long time and i have had time to get used to the fact that if my family ever wants to have contact with me it will be if they give up their religious beliefs..i can no longer allow the anger to eat at me...it isnt doing anything good for me.
i dont want to be angry anymore.... blind rage controls.
