Yeah but Im going to bed soon as I have to head back home to Tennessee tomorrow. anyway here is the text of the message as i had a posting error--Anyway we decided saturday to come home for Ky for fathers day just for 1 day so my wife could see her Dad and I could see some of my relatives. I saw 3 of my cousins earlier today-my non jw cousins. I finally explained to one of my cousins, she is 68 years old. I told her more about my JW upbringing and how the fear of Armageddon and its immenence caused me to make so many poor career choices and decisions when I was younger, Tears were flowing down her cheeks as she told me she was so glad im out of that "mess" She is familiar with the JW's herself as her mother was one, but she has never been inside a kingdom hall as far as I know and attends the church of christ. Anyway we had a really long and interesting discussion and i told her about the UN, pedophiles, and various other issues. It literally shocked her. She was always one of my favorite cousins growing up so I finally just felt the need to explain certain things in my life and why im in the predicament Im in now. Any way I enjoyed my visit and chat with her. Later on yesterday evening I attended church with my 3 other cousins and their husbands at the Rockhouse Freewill Baptist church, We had about 60 show up for the evening service. My wife decided not to go tonight and visited with her mom and dad instead. Well tomorrow i have to head home to the big city of Knoxville and i know I will be homesick again, but I can always come back on the weekend sometime. I go back to work tomorrow night. later y'all
