My first 20 years of abuse, indoctrination and torture.
The next 20 years of confusion, pain and healing.
Endless possibilities thereafter.

The story of most of us in 3 words:
Born. Living. Death.
-------------------------------
P.S. I wrote "most"... some babies are born dead.
Greetings the incredible wise Prins Vaillant ;)

Obviously Secret
Born a JW. Still a JW even though I'm finding out it's crap. Trying to take a few people down with me, and trying to ask Chevy on advice to take people down with.

undercover
Raised a JW from early age on by fairly strict parents which kept me fairly naive until I graduated high school.
Eventually became a MS, married into a strong JW family, was on track to become an elder.
Started doubting little things, then questioned bigger things, then realized it was all baloney and managed a long, quiet fade.

I was born rebellious and raised JW, so I had a pretty horrible childhood. I started running away from home when I was 14 and finally walked away at 15, and I've been getting on with life's ups and downs ever since, with a lot of good luck and good help from (Worldly) people along the way. Whenever I'm inclined to piss and moan about things, I just think, however bad this is, it's not as bad as being a JW was! (Had to fiddle with the punctuation to get that down to three sentences. I think I cheated really.)
