    Welcome!

    If it would help you in sorting things out, consider PMing people on the board whose views you'd like to explore further.

    Welcome!

    He was very angry and hurt with organization and put me and our family through a lot of heartache. However, I now think it was one of the things that aided him on his journey and his growth to the man he is now.

    Although I haven't put my wife through "a lot of heartache," I know that I stress her out when I get fevered about the Org. I'm trying to learn better mechanisms to deal with my issues and she is a pretty liberal JW lady who has slowly allowed herself to open up to more ideas beyond current JW teaching. I hope that she will be able to say something similar to what you posted above in the future.
