    I'm so glad you guys cleared that up about mother's day. (that it's in the UK and not the USA)

    I was starting to worry.

    In my mind I was like , well I've already had everything I once believed in as far as JW related totally ripped to shreds

    so now you're going to tell me that Mother's day isn't in May.

    After reading this thread I see I wasn't the only one.

    Quoting cognac:

    Thank-you! I didn't even know it was mothers day! It's my first mothers day! Now I have to celebrate!!!

    cognac that is priceless. I laughed when I read that because I was having to think about it as well.

    It just illustrates how far removed from the real world we are/were because of being either raised as a JW or spending

    an extended length of time in the Org.

    Edited to add: Happy mum's day to all you in the UK

    To my mom: You can pound sand for shunning me because an insane mind control cult tells you that you should. Shame on you!

    Amen!
