Hello everyone-
So , this is our 2nd christmas as a family out of the " troof " . Sometimes it feels great and sometimes I get so anxious. After being involved with jw's for 20+ years we are out and all of our daughters who were raised as jws are out too. We have a 4 year old who only went to meetings as an infant and missed the whole jw experience.
I still have a sister calling on me out of concern ( my husband and I are not df'd or diss. yet , I am sure when the x-mas thing is actually an issue it won't be long.) But I used to feel I didn't want to play anymore of the jw games and was not going to send in a letter to diss. myself ( my oldest daughter did) now I am feeling a desire to just get rid of the whole thing and do it. I know I will never go back to that kingdom hall ever again. Anyway - I really need to just tell this sister the truth about how I feel. Her now deceased mom was a very good friend of mine. It feels a little like her mom is here when we chat.
I just want to also say "Merry Christmas,Seasons Greetings,Peace on Earth" to one and all and send a little hope and courage to anyone still struggling with their own jw travels.....I guess life in any form is just one big adventure ( good and bad )
Love - Sunny
