The first day after my DA letter was sent, I felt like I had a 500 pound weight lifted off of me and a dark veil removed from my face. I could talk to people without being judgemental and feeling the "superior" attitude that JWs have. I have been DAd for about 2 months now and just in time - we are so looking forward to Christmas. I actually get to go to our office Christmas Party this year!
There are so many things to look forward to now that I'm not looking back over my shoulder all the time. I hope to work even harder at my newer hobby, singing. My hubby has been so helpful and supportive, he has even set up a little home studio where I can practice and record myself. I feel like I'm ready to pick back up in my life where I left off 14 years ago when we were duped by the borg.
