WHAT I DO NOW:
Go to a church I WANT to attend and enjoy being at
Study Bible topics I'm interested in
Working on being completely "transparent" (honest) about who I am
Enjoying my life!!
WHAT I DON'T DO NOW:
Try to find excuses to miss the next meeting
Spend time studying articles/books I am NOT interested in learning
Try so hard to be a good little girl & pretend I'm someone I'm not
Research whether it's ok to have oral sex now or not (tee hee)
Worry about Armageddon
First thing I did after I left was join a Tae Kwon Do class.
Martial Arts was a tug of war topic for me and the elders.
Smoked some pot, although not now. Drank allot, although not anymore. Had LOTS of sex. My wife and I being swingers helps that out.
I now study various religions of MY choosing. I have friends now who like me for me not under some arbitrary condition. I listen to whatever music I want to listen. I go to college much to my enjoyment. If I could afford it I'd be a lifetime student. The biggest thing that I don't do anymore is live in fear. I pray to "Pagan" gods/goddesses. I don't dance naked that often so I guess you guys got me on that one ;)
I am coaching my daughters high school dance team. I am enjoying my Sundays and Tuesday nights and Thursday nights , each and every one!!!
I am glad when I hear about an assembly or convention that I won't have to go to it!!! I am really trying to figure out who god really is without the crap!!!! And I am using my free will to make educated decisions every day!!!
I devote every minute of my spare time towards the demolition and annihilation of the Watchtower religion.
