I not only found out what I wanted, I found out far more than I ever imagined.I remember attending a funeral and glaring the preacher down because what he was preaching what seemed to be a bunch of nonsense. As I walked out of the church I held my maroon NWT bible in way that he could see it. I think back as how stupid I must have looked thinking I knew so much in comparison to how much I have learned since then. If he had actually challenged me with a question without a Watchtower, Awake or Reasoning book I would've been lost. I remember in the pass when asked something about religion...I couldn't just go to the bible, how helpless I was without a publication. I also remember a couple visiting me and sharing some inspiration with me, however he did it through the latest copy of the Watchtower. Left that placement with me to read over.

I think a lot of us who were dubs can relate to that, always needing those publications to explain what we believed instead of the bible. So much for "making the truth our own" huh, LOL
