    got my forty homey?

    I guess Empathy, because i always thought that my story was sad, but after reading dozens of horrible stories in here about the "Society" and its effects on families and JWD members I really dont understand how anyone could be part of this cult, especially those with 30-40 years?

    I use to not get along with many in here but after reading thier respective posts about child abuse, unfair disfellowshipping, family shunning I realize that many of use carry "luggage" and at times the emotions bubble forth because of a bad day, or bad experience with a family member still in the BORG, and I TRY to remain calm when I feel I maybe attacked unfairly because there are days my emotional state will bubble out and I'm not the frendliest person.

    But thats the beuty of this board, we sort have all been married to each other, luggage and all.
