    In the back of my mind I knew it wouldnt happen, but nobody listens to me.

    Thank you happhanna, yes success will be mine. I dont doubt that one bit. I have tried to include other people in my plans, but I will have to go it alone (well almost)

    You know how we say things like....If I could just help ONE person out of the Borg....and make a difference in just ONE person's life, it would feel so good.?? Well.....being on this board helps so many on a daily basis, and much of the time we don't even know how much good we have done. You are one of the people on here I feel like I could count on, because how caring and generous you are. I wish you all the good, and I hope some good life distractions come your way so you get too busy to worry about the Watchtower Crap.

    Thanks Megsmomma, I appreciate that. I have had people cuss me out, flame me, threaten me, you name it--but it never got to me, I just let it roll off my shoulders, but something was said recently that really hurt me, and I cant even say it here, and I dont want to say it either, for reasons that I cant explain. This time I took it personal, and hopefully I can overcome it and get on with business.

    Hi J-G,

    I'm glad you are here. This is a great discussion board. I know that I've learned a lot from the ex-JW's that post here. Yes, we don't all agree on everything, but that is fine. In fact, it's great, considering that we couldn't disagree openly with anything while we were still Witnesses. Some of us may be in a position to actually meet other ex-Witnesses. That's got to be a pretty cool thing! But, we are a diverse bunch. Each of us is on a different path. Frankly, I've changed my belief structure so much that I feel I've yet to get my bearings. Anyway, do what you feel is the right thing. Don't be discouraged when others fail to meet your expectations. We're only human.

    Thanks Primate Dave, this may sound confusing, but what was said to me wasnt an insult, and Im sure wasnt intended to be, and I dont feel any disappointment towards this person whatsoever, this person said something unknowingly to me that made alot of sense, if only I was more informed. The problem is I wasnt informed, even though I tried to be. Get it? That is why I title my post the way it is.

    Well, JG, you've done it again!

    I fully intended to turn off the PC - and leave it off - the entire weekend, or longer. I have had so many crashes with JWD this last week that I figured what's the use of trying to get back on and then be shut down again and again. Then you had to go and say everything I've been feeling. I certainly can't ignore your declaration of bewilderment and dejection.
    Previous to reading your thread, I had seen this week's WT study article. Sickened by it and miserable by my JWs' seeming attachment to THE TRUTH, I was ready to throw in the towel as one conquered by THE EVIL. And you always come along and pull me out of it! Little did you know.
    If I tell you that your efforts are not wasted, then I had better believe the same about myself! God bless you.........

    I am sorry you may feel unwanted JG,,you are wanted very much here, only the XJW world for the most part can only be a "link" to your next path. XJWs are not "cookie-cut" like JWs and that's a good thing. That's why it's comical when JWs accuse or feel so threatened that XJWS are trying to get individual JWs to leave JWdom and follow XJWs, because most of us are not going to "follow" anyone anymore, hopefully. It's up to every one of us to find ourselves and build a true life and fulfillment. As JWs we were always "waiting" for Paradise to give us true life & fulfillment.

    Thank you CoCo, this really means alot to me. I'm plugging along still, Im just at a point that I feel like Im not even wanted. There are several "contacts" that I have kept secret, I mainly didnt want to tip the WT Society off. Yeah I may seem like just an ordinary,backwards, whatever XJW. Maybe Im just not in the clique?
