Welcome Snowboarder
Glad you found us here. Once you start to see that this strange religion is not for you anymore, you can't help but be true to yourself and leave, I did and I was in it for 30 long boring years!
Be true to yourself and follow your dream (not someone else's). I look forward to seeing you win GOLD at the winter Olympics in the near future.

Welcome, Snowboarder!
You may have to move out from your parent's house in order for you to pursue your goals.
My goodness, you woke up to the truth about the troof at the perfect age!
I, too, wanted to be in the Olympics for figure skating but my parents never believed in my potential or that JW's should be in something so patriotic.
They never got me lessons, not one.
I know what a dream like yours is and appreciate all the hard work you are doing to make it come true.
Here's something I know about really successful people that was told by Stephen King: Become obsessed with it.
It's got to be an obsession or it won't work.
Olympians work at their sport for 10+ hours every day for the years before the Olympics that they want to join.
They eat right, too, and have a strict schedule of exercise written out and follow it to the letter.
They are disciplined to never miss a practice day.
You can do it!
Your win will be my win, too

Hi Snowboarder,
Welcome to this place. You say that you are 18 !!!!!!! Honey, I have pantyhose older than that!
"..i wish i could start life all over agian..."
I do understand that you feel you've 'wasted' time and have been held back somewhat but think about it ... if you started over again really how far ahead would you be? You're still only 18.
Take a deep breath and get some perspective. The world's your oyster, if you only knew it. Opportunities will come and go, just keep moving ahead toward your dreams.

Welcome! It is good to have you on "board". Gee, that's a simply terrible pun.

to clarity 18...well in snowboard terms and according to the Olympic team of Canada i have no hope....well i won't give up i still will fight for my goal...i would go back to age of 8 and live my life differently join a snowboard club then and start to learn and practice every day.. i wish i had parents that motivated me instead of going after wild religious goose hunts but what i know at the age of 8 that JW r far from then what they seem.. yup...i would be in the Olympics by now and i cried when i saw some one my age 18 in the Ski jumps....yup i was upset and that was also the straw that broke my back.....
to MrFreeze easier said then done for my dreams it will be a hard one...
to Broken Promises thnks i will let u know if it happens....it's hard life always sucks for me....long story...i'm starting to make goals and it's just hard to break the news to my parents it's like telling them i'm going to kill my self....that hard...
to White Dove i know how u feel....the brother and sister don't make it easy i feel like god is speaking though them not to give up....they talk about how many left offers to be in the NHL and know how they service jehovah and they cry and get emotional l about what happen....i know why because they regret it..... it's going to be hard...i know i have to put more hours in.......i hate my life.....i wish i could just sometimes die on my snowboard and wake up in a new world to start again......
if anyones wants to talk to me pls message me i have skype and that stuff i'm really lonely...i just hate the G.B as much as the war criminals that ruined my country Yugoslavia....
