i was feeling a little low in spirits today...just thought i would write down some memories,.. i remember when i was about 6 yrs old, my younger sister and i took off to the beach with a couple of other kids about the same age and we went to the beach...that was about lunchtime on a saturday and we somehow managed to get home about 8 at night....my mother must have been frantic with worry....i feel so sorry for her having to go through that.. i remember her dragging 12 kids to the meetings and everyone was amazed that she could do that...she tried so hard to do the best for us..... i remember when she started studying and she tried really hard to do the right thing ....my uncle who wasnt a witness use to give my mum a christmas cake and then she use to bury it in the back yard....even though when yrs went past she came to her senses and it was just a fruit cake with icing anyway.. whenever we had problems we always went to mum....when we were sick, when we had trouble at school etc etc..... she always had the right advice even though it may not have been what we wanted to hear...somehow she was always right.. when she had to cook dinner, i never realised but she went without meat so the rest of the family could have it.. there were 3 bedrooms in the house and we had a big garage out the back...so dad made one half of the garage into a bedroom so some of the boys could sleep out there which left a small rectangular bit..so he made that into another bedroom so 2 of the girls could have it and us other 3 girls slept in the bedroom in the house.. i remember going to the markets with mum and dad and he would carry a sack around and put things in there they would buy and he would buy cashews....they are my favourite.. my mum never really had a holiday in those yrs....wasnt till later on in her life when the kids were older that she would go interstate to visit one of my sisters...my dad worked a lot to bring money into the house.

i remember when there were assemblies in another state, she would start putting money away to save for it and we stayed with other people for the assembly because she couldnt afford accommodation for 12 kids plus herself....my dad wasnt a witness.. there are a lot more memories i have but this list would be too long.... i love my mother sooo much and as i type this i cry because she has been gone for 3 yrs dec 12 this yr and my dad will be gone 6 yrs dec 29 this yr.. as i got older i vowed to myself i would try not to answer my mother back or make her upset because i knew that one day she would be gone and i would never forgive myself ....i "talk" to her every night and tell her how much i love and miss her...she is my heart and my soul.... thats all i can tell for now, there will be more another time.. thanks for listening.

Thanks for sharing...........sometimes we need to be reminded about how precious our parents are and how fragile life is. Your story really does that.

As I read it I felt very sad. My 19 yo son has been very difficult due to his canabbis use. He is very agressive and becomes violent. Just yesterday he had an outburst of anger and put his fist through his bedroom door..............and just minutes before that he told me how much he hates me and wishes I would die! I tell him he shouldn't say those things because if I should die after those words are spoken, he would feel terrible and suffer guilt. It would be hard on him.

No matter how much I tell myself he doesn't really mean it, I can't help but feel very hurt. His father is already dead to suicide.

Anyhow, I love my mum and have her so I'll make sure I tell her how much she means to me.

Thanks Fairy for your honesty and although words will never be enough I do feel for you and hope for your peace.

Love, Bliss.

How long did it take for you to realize it wasn't the truth?

by freedom96 in

jw
friends

so many of us, so many reasons we left or were kicked out.

from that point, how long did it take for you to not feel guilty about things and realize that the wts is not the "truth" as they always claim and that they have no say in whatever happens to us later.. for me, it was a slow fade.

not so much because i was determind to leave it; it was basically laziness in that regard.

BLISSISIGNORANCE

I wasn't raised in the borg so it took me a while to learn the tactics and hypocracy of the WTS.

For me it was a gradual realization for about 7 years. Noticing the lack of love, the gossiping, the self-righteousness, the judgements, the condeming, the shunning, etc, etc.

But the crunch came when my child was abused by a dub and eventually I got df'ed for warning some of the mothers to watch their children around the pedo. Then I saw how corrupt elders can get false witnesses to tell twisted stories. I also experienced 1st hand the lack of love and mercy.........there is nothing in that borg that has to do with Christ or goodness.

So after being humiliated and emotionally abused by the elders, and then seeing how the ones at the top do nothing to help the sheep but cover for the elders...............I started to fade because meetings became a source of frustration and the more I heard the more anger developed in me.

After being a fader for many months and meeting sooooooo many people here that have had similair experiences, I found it easy to say 'it wasn't the truth'.

It took time to understand what was going on, it took time to see things for what they were, it took time to become deprogrammed, but the most important was it took time to trust myself and have confidence in my own abilities again.

I also had the advantage of having a thinking husband who was patient with me and gently gave me the information, slowly, bit by bit, until I could handle it.

I'll never look back..............it's all in front of me now.
