hey all, thanks everyone for your comments, i've made my decision and i will be attending the meeting this sunday. and hawk, thanks for your concern about me going back but i assure you i would NEVER go back in the sense of wanting to become a jw again. no way, not going to happen. i see this as a once in awhile kind of thing...my mom has been really good about letting me live my life. usually i just get the invite to the memorial every year and yes, every year i attend that event (hmm, not so much an event as it is a sleep fest!) and in past years she's let me know about the co's visit, hinting that she'd like me to come but i've always had plans or been busy. but for some reason this year i feel differently about it. i want to hear the bullshit the co has to say this year. maybe this can open up some dialogue between my family and me. i don't know...i guess i will see.
and here is my selfish reason for going to the meeting on sunday, i will be staying over at my parents house saturday night (grandparents, not jws, are in town) and there is a party i want to go to in my hometown and since i'm car-less my mom has agreed to let me use one of their cars to go this party...hehe, so i guess this is sort of a compromise? oh well, should be an interesting weekend!
i'll post about the meeting sunday when i get back home. have a great weekend all.
love
harmony
Most people think, Great God will come from the skies, Take away everything And make everybody feel high. But if you know what life is worth, You will look for yours on earth: And now you see the light, You stand up for your rights.~~Bob Marley
