    ...so here it goes...

    My story is of no consequence. I've been reading a long time here and just wanted to say that you guys are all nuts. And I mean that in the highest form of complement. It's like that line from the movie Ran where the Fool says, "in a mad world only the mad are sane."

    A lot of people in our position sit in a Kingdom Hall thinking "maybe I'M the crazy one for feeling this way", as if there is no one you can confide in and you feel all alone. Then you discover people who faced/are facing the same doubts and frustrations. I just wanted to say thanks for giving me a reason to hope again, something I haven't experienced in a long time.

    That's all, I've prattled on too much already. As you were.

    Yippie kay yay,

    Mr. Falcon

    Welcome to the board, Mr.Falcon. I know what you mean, it is a feeling of relief to know there's others in our position. We're not crazy, we're just all too aware.

    Oh and your opening post reminded me of Matchbox 20's song unwell.

    We're not crazy we're just a little unwell.

    Welcome Mr. Falcon.

    I am glad you found us and that you have a reason to hope again. I don't feel your story is of no consequence. Each of us adds to the ever increasing voice that the Botchtower has issues and people need to be aware of them.

    As Farkel has said, along with others, our stories need to be told. Looking forward to you sharing yours with us.
