HONESTY- I feel a lot more freedom of movement in my life and the opportunity to accomplish a lot more. I'm certainly not reaching out in a "cultish" religion anymore- but feel I'm reaching out in a better way in order to help people get encouragement after exiting the cult " Jehovah's Witnesses". It is a lot more fulfilling than turning a time slip in . And my wife and I enjoy the freedom of not being controlled by a cult, so e can truly explore and enjoy life
Now that you are OUT instead of REACHING OUT

Having the end of the month come without worrying about having to go out in field circus just that once so I could have something to turn in. And, not having to worry about getting up for a damn boasting session, taking time off work to attend the big boasting sessions or race to get a room for the Grand Boasting Session, or arranging to be at the Supreme Wastefest (the Crapmorial).

Could I ask if anyone during the walks in field service actually found it worth doing -that is converting anyone at all? Or was it just poluite door slamming?

GREAT! I use to have such anger but Iam learning to let it go. It just takes time. I actually look forward to each day. I use to look at the days as meeting days and nonmeeting days. No life befor, so consumed with pleasing "the Society".

Pretty much what I expected to hear.
It gets better Zero.
Just take one day at a time and rememer the cult had a lot of years to constantly to screw with your mind so you can't expect the Jehovah's Witness crap to get flushed away all at once.

It's really weird having to interact with the rest of the world. I come off as strange from the gate, and then, its only magnified once people get to see who I really am. Then, if I just allow life to kinda' just happen, it has some truly wonderful moments, intermingled with a bit of anxious nervous tension. I hop on the right wave, and everything begins to settle out. I begin to blend, like a chamelleon, I kinda' take to, as well as, take on the energy of the group. It's really kinda' nice, often times.

I've been out since 81. I cant immagine in this day and age where people have to work 2 jobs just to make ends meet how anyone would have time for all the nonsense of being volunteer salesmen for a pulp religious litterature printing company.
