    I just thought about it.

    If every dub were to take a two month vacation from the 'tower treadmill, no literature, no meetings, no service, no association, no continual reinforcement of the worldview...

    I wonder how many would go back?

    BTW, this is exactly what I did. Two months has turned into two years now!

    Bradley of the I just thought about it kind.... that has a ring to it.

    Yeah all dubs need a time out to become a human individual again. Get some reading and thinking done to get those little grey cells hummin'.

    For me it was similar. I started college, found new interesting people to talk to and learn from, got into therapy and ***BAM ***I discovered a road "and only stopped to rest myself when the silver moon shined over me." James Taylor

    I was explaining to a counselor about the JW view of "independent thinking"... the look on his face was priceless. "So they think it's good to be a drone?" If it hadn't been such a serious conversation, I would have been rotfl.

    That's a very smart looking avatar Odrade. I'm quite fond of it.
