......... I had the guts to telephone any JW?s just for the sake of it, with nothing less than Xmas Carol music playing in the background???now that would razz them off!! Lol

I wish I had the guts to post my picture on this forum like Nina (Cruzanheart who seems to of been in this cult round about the same length of time I have) and others. I think that ?coming out? and posting your picture really shows lurkers that really we should not be fearful when seeking TRUTH. That really what most of the people on this board are about?? Yet I am still hesitant.

I wish that all the ?New Years resolutions I know I?m going to make - I could keep!

I wish it could be Xmas every day!

(Glen Miller playing in the background live Xmas Eve grooves??..just great! Guess I'm a tad early! Making up for lost time)

Hi Latte

Dont be too hard on yourself.

We all come to this site with differant emotional baggage. I am hesitant to be too open on the board due to JW ties that still exist.

Having said that look at what you are doing. Even talking of xmas is a big step. Contrast that to how you felt say 5 years ago or even at the height of your belief in the WTBTS lore.

We are all moving at differant speeds but hopefully in the one direction with the org behind us as a gradually fading spectre

Are you getting ready for xmas yet? PM me and I will send you a card if you feel OK about that.

Take care

((((Latte and family))))

Everyone comes to this board at different stages of recovery, and with different circumstances.

Don't berate yourself for the freedoms you DON'T have yet....CELEBRATE the freedoms you DO have.

You're celebrating Xmas right? Getting presents for the kids? Listening to carols? Put up a tree? Making happy memories with your family? BE HAPPY!

Anglise,

Yes, we are celebrating??..the tree has been up about two weeks already! LOL The kids (me really) couldn?t wait to decorate the house! We have flashing lights - anything that looks Xmasssy!

I would love a card! I will pm you, and you must let me know your addy. Thank you. The baggage is hard to dump, especially when you have family/friend ?in?. However, we are determined to do everything as any normal person would ?.for the kids sake- even if that means me having to dress up and wear a flashing santa hat again...lol

((((((Tracy,)))))

CELEBRATE the freedoms you DO have.

Good advice, isn?t it wonderful?! Hey?.I can make decisions for myself?.instead of having to search a JW publication to help me?.BWAHAHAHA

Thanks Tracy! Please could I have your address too??

Thanks for your thoughts guys?.
