born and raised in it till I was 33. Ughhh I suppose that means 67 for me.
But in reality I have lived more in these past 9 years than I did the entire time I was a JW. While I was a JW it was more of an existence, not living.
Regardless at what point in life one leaves a cult the important and most crucial thing is to get busy living.
Look not to the past where it is recorded in stone but to your future and the many exciting chapters yet to be written.
