Memorial No Shows...Please Check in.... (page 3)

I'd had enough of that pablum for the mind by the time I was 16. I'll not go again, unless it's to partake of the emblems and cause a ruckus. But I would go where I was a stranger and then refuse to identify myself. But I'd hint that I was The Carpenter.

Hell no, I won't go!

JW Sister-in-law
to Smoldering Wick-"Did your Mom invite you to the Memorial?"

Wick to SIL-"No"

SIL to Wick-"Well, would you like to go?"

Wick to SIL-"No"

SIL to Wick-blank stare

I , and my family, will not attend for the very first time. It will be difficult as sunset falls to think that all our friends will be there thinking of how sad it is that we are "lost". We are thinking of holding our own - my kids and spouse and I. Am I the only one that is affected by this?

I toyed with the idea of picketing the local KH and passing out apostate literature, but decided I'd rather stay home and watch a movie.

ISP,

I'm not attending. I've been a backsliding wench for 23 years now, so why change now? I gotta keep living up to my name.

misty,
I understand what you're saying. I just have no answer as to what to do. I hope to see other's thougths on your question.

peace,
somebody

zev, I wouldn't waste the paper (all the JW's that I've given print-outs to concerning silentlambs have, figuratively speaking, stuck their noses in the air......It's unbelievable how they "put on the blinders" to even something in which children are being shattered.......

misty and somebody, I know what you mean, it is sad, but only because we have to say goodbye to people who mean alot to us....
I think we would be much sadder though if we attempted to betray what is in our hearts....
