I am sorry I have been away, yes I have been posting, but I have not been replying to e-mail the way I should be, long distance is disconnected now, so I don't have the means to call any of you anymore...
So I wanted to say I am sorry I have not stayed in touch...
Now, somthing else I wanted to say...
You have been here for me through the best of times and the worst. Been here for 1 year posting now (August 3rd,) and I must say this last 12 months has been mind bending for me. Lots of upsetting events, all begining with leaving the Watchtower, realizing it was all a lie. I have been out of the Borg -- IN MY HEART -- for just barely over a year now.
NOW
Without the support of many of you, the transition of leaving the Witnesses would have been hellish, not to mention the other aspects of my life that have made me grit my teeth a time or two.
I am sorry I have flaked off with e-mails, as things are insane and I have zero time, but your kind messages to me have more meaning than any of you will ever know.
Without this place, I can honestly say, I KNOW for a FACT I would be a mental mess right now. You folks are my true friends, and tho we may not hang out at each other's homes and eat dinner -- each and every time we turn on our PC's we are creating our own special gathering place where none of the world understands us but US!
Perhaps we do not always get along, or see eye to eye, but in the end, we all bleed the same unique color and feel many of the same things.
I consider each and every one of you a very special part of me, part of a family from exotic places all across the world.
I will stop mushing now... just wanted to say I am sorry for not staying in touch the way I should...
Love,
Amanda
