Once again I say goodbye (page 6)

Billy the Ex-Bethelite

Grace,

I haven't been around to know what's been going on. I haven't read more of this than your opening post. I'll just say...

Please don't leave on account of a few troublemakers. Please stay on account of those of us that love you and need you.

What Billy said.

You must stay here...no matter what. Take some days away, I think we all need to do that from time to time, I know I do.

Love you Grace.

Please don't leave. There are ones who have benefited from your comments, just as me. I will hate to have your input be missing from this forum.

This is a good point Billy. I don't understand why some on here let the actions of a few troublemakers void the appreciation of many. The reality is there is no scenario in life where you can make everyone like you. So why "punish" the majority for the actions of a minority? It is like a pro athlete retiring because even though thousands of fans cheered for him, there were a few that booed.

It is clear you are wanted here Grace. Hope to see you back.

Mouthy I'll miss you. Please feel free to keep in contact with me.

I do.

dear GLADIATOR...

Grace stated: "But it is upsetting to me now to see how some have become harsh MAKING ME WANT TO BE HARSH"...

why minimize Grace's feelings by saying what you did?..." Much Ado About Nothing"

I find it belittles individuals personally when they feel that being an x-JW some how gives them entitlement to be abusive and mean spirited...as much as many of you have been spiritually abused by the WTBTS you aren't the only people in the world who have been abused. One thing that some individuals might want to look into is how to stop the cycle of abuse...it starts with you...

Grace is gracious...you have the capacity to be too, I'm sure. Why you choose to project yourselves as less than civilised is odd and certainly counter-productive to any advocacy you wish to pursue.
