It's quite rare (or even non-existant) that we get to read the feelings and experiences of a faithful JW who is still in, and has not been influenced by apostate literature.
However, I have in my posession a journal written by a JW; a single woman in her 20s named Kim. I came into posession of her journal back in the mid-90s when I was still in myself. She had given me her Commodore 64 along with a bunch of floppies, one containing her Journal.
I recently uncovered the dust from this item, and decided to give it a read. After reading it, I thought it may be beneficial for those who are still JWs to read her journal. It provides a look inside the mind of another JW, and lets us see what they won't reveal to another common JW, or even the Elders.
Kim's spelling is anything but good, but her concerns and her feelings are very real.
I am also posting Kim's Journal on my blog, where I describe a bit of the technical side of getting the data onto the PC. I may possibly post some extra stuff there too, most likely audio recordings (when I get the time to go through my old cassettes).
Here is my blog address: http://classicalgasemissions.blogspot.com
But on JWD I will be posting Kim's journal 4 entries at a time for a total of 5 posts. Names have been changed to protect the innocent.

Did you get her permission? IMO, this feels like a violation of privacy. I wouldn't like it if my journal was posted, even if the names were changed.
