    I can't belive it's been a whole year!!!!

    Last year on Oct 3rd, I was at home with my parents eating dinner. We of course were not at the meeting . Dad put a new CD in the player, (new to him that is). It was 7:25 and mom said, just think if we were at meeting it'd be time for the announcements. Now we hadn't really thought about the meetings in a while, but for some reason that night we did, right then the CD started blarring "BORN FREE"!!! Well we found out two days later from my Grama in CA that mom and I were both DF'd that night. Right as we were singing Born Free hahhahah kool eh!!!!!

    Whhooohoooo a whole year. In some ways the year seemed to be a lifetime, becuase EVERYTHING I ever knew changed, and I had to start all over again, and then on the other hand it's amazing how far I've gotten in only a year. Some people have been offended or upset when they hear that I'm glad I'm df'd. They say NO you can't really be glad. But you know I AM!!!! I sure am. I'm not glad I lost all my friends and family, but they'd stopped talking to me several months prior to being DF'd it really didn' affect that. I'm GLAD TO BE DF'd because I am NO LONGER associated with an organization that I feel is EVIL. With how they've treated people over the years, how many have died or suffered due to rules which they've changed? To say nothing about the issue of protecting Pedophiles. Now with the UN scandel who knows what else we'll find, I'm SO GLAD not to be assoiciated with that Org anymore.

    So that's why I'm celebrating my 1st Anniversary of my date of freedom from False Religion!!!!

    Champange anyone????

    Happy anniversary!!! My DA’ing was also in October of last year. To say that a whole new life opened up is too simplistic. It’s more like a whole new way of thinking, like a mental fog was lifted from my mind. Anyway, enough analyzing, pass the champagne!

    Venice:

    Congrats. on a whole year of glorious freedom!

    The fabled month of October 2000 (as YK put it) was also the month I finally reached the end of my tether and quit going to meetings and in field service. I dont know the exact date, as I simply stopped going and never really thought to record the date. So October is an anniversary of sorts for me too, albeit just one stage on my way to freedom.

    So pour me a champagne while you're at it. Drink it too!

    I'll tell you what she did. It isn't what you think, Michael. She merely stopped believing it. They can't handle anyone who doesn't conform to the whole thing.

    Congratulations, Ven. That seems to be the appropriate thing to say.
