My dear sweet Mouthy.....I can assure you that your love and friendship have been a huge blessing to me, as you have helped me out spiritually, emotionally and at one time, financially.....(so that I could attend the WNFJ Convention in the mountains of PA a number of years ago ). Unfortunately, illness has prevented me from being able to travel more than an hour or so away from home, but that convention was one of the highlights of my life....and you sat by my side the entire time.
I too forget things now at age 71.....so it seems to be part of aging process....it used to bother me when others would "remind" me of things I had totally forgotten and had NO recollection of ever occurring....but it is just the way it is. I don't fret over it any more.
I have two offspring (out of the six I raised) that have chosen to devote themselves to loyalty to the WTS ......and they have totally shut me out of their lives when I decided to not attend meetings after the Memorial of 1998. Hubby and I have welcomed a great-grandchild from one of the "speaking to us" children. She will be 2 this month....so things have a way of evening out.
It still hurts terribly to lose the love of children because of cult teachings and lies they believe....but my life has taken a whole new and delightful turn for the better now .....as I pursue my new spiritual path guided by love for God and for all others no matter what building they might worship in....recalling as Jesus explained in the bible....what the Two Laws HE preached and focused on, actually hinged upon what mankind needed to embrace more fully.
Have a lovely evening my friend....
Annie
