What does it mean when you dream of a blue envelope?
Envelopes in a dream signifies anticipation or opportunity. Unopened envelopes indicates sad news or missed opportunities.
The color blue represents truth, wisdom, heaven, eternity, tranquility, openness, loyalty, and devotion. It might be a desire to get away. This color in your dream may be a symbol of your spiritual guide and your optimism of the future. However, depending on the context of your dream, blue might be a metaphor for feeling sad.

I would like to be disfellowshipped for any of the following:
Telling the truth
Brazen brazenness with a side of brazen attitude
Enjoying the Sparlock DVD too much
Asking every householder if he would like to be put on the do not call list
Clapping at the wrong time
Giving blood with instructions that it be used for fractions
Crying at a Kingdom Hall funeral
Successfully predicting new light
Refusing to report time
Embezzlement of millions of dollars from the Watchtower Society
Karl Adams, Writing Department overseer, wrote a letter to President Knorr (November 18, 1971), questioning the keeping of voluminous files containing embarrassing information on disfellowshipped persons. Even after individuals were reinstated, their files were retained:
"At the present time the names of even those reinstated are kept in the file, and bulky records are kept of their cases, labeled 'Do no destroy.' It seems tantamount to saying: 'We believe you are forgiven, but we are keeping a record of your sin.' Or like saying, 'Your sins are washed clean but we are storing the dirt in a jar with your name on the label.'"
Decades later the practice continues.
