  Authentic Happiness for Ex-JW’s Part 1

  by Mindchild in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  strange as it seems, the happiest day i remember of in my entire life as a jehovahs witness happened on the opening day of a week long district assembly in california when i was a young teenager.

  three things came together that day to give me a short glimpse of authentic happiness.

  the first was that my parents decided i was old enough to give me just a tiny bit more freedom and allow me to sit where i wanted, to do volunteer work if i wanted, and even gave me a few dollars for meals.

  If You Value Love, NEVER Become a Jehovah's Witness!

  by metatron in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  i was observing my loyal wife sending out anniversary cards to other witnesses,.

  as she has done for many years.

  if we were ordinary protestants, we would probably.

  Metatron, this post made me think of the endless memorys of the coldness in the cong. I was in. There is no love there...never will be...not real love and concern anyway...their 'fake' love always comes with a knife in the back.

  I know its painful.

  (((((((((((((((metatron))))))))))))))))))

  I think it is hard to generalize Jehovah's Witnesses and say all lack love and compassion. I knew a number of them that were wonderful and caring people.

  Miz, yer me 2 but not that many, which is really sad...but not long after i left one of the couples in the hall who really are loving and kind left a message on my answering machine...left me in tears for days.

  1. jw
  2. friends

  in the last couple of days ive been reading info on the un & wts ...so have been pretty absorbed with the amount of info out there on the wts...

  Thanks for all the encouragment! It means alot !

  I felt like I was hit across the chest with an aluminum bat, knocked to the ground, and then had my teeth kicked in. It’s only been a few months for me, so I’m still reeling a bit from it all.

  Winston, Yer I agree thats how i still feel , but then it hasnt been long for me either.

  The word for me was obsessed...and not by the devil. I researched for hours everyday for several months on everything imaginable until I had acumulated a mountain of shit on the organization...then I started to realize it didn't matter how much more shit I added to the pile..it was still shit.

  Sometimes I dig out my shit and look through it just to confirm it again..and yep....it's still shit.

  Shotgun...to first comment, yer id say im obsessed with this as well...

  to the 2nd comment above...lmfao

  Thanks Again (( LadyLee )) for all the info

  Are You Surpised By What You Don't Believe In Anymore?

  by minimus in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  .

  jehovah's witnesses must "believe" whatever the watchtower bible & tract society publishes.

  now that you aren't forced to accept beliefs that you might not have wholeheartedly endorsed, there must be many different things that you don't accept.....what comes to mind?

  He told me to start believing in myself and my capability to make decisions.

  Good Point, Will have to remember that one.

  Also too i remember a sister saying to me once ''by watching tv shows with gay people in them we are inviting them into our lounge rooms''.....

  That I certainly dont believe.

  1 Hour to my sons Judicial Committee

  by freeman in

  2. friends

  well this is about as real as it gets.

  in about an hour my son will be appearing before a judicial committee for the second time in as many weeks.

  unfortunately i just happen to be about 3000 miles away right now (business trip) so i cant be there for support and i cant get the ancillary information that i would normally get just by being present.

  My wife informed me that she would be there with my son in the Star Chamber during the Inquisitors examination. Is this normal?

  I think it would be good for him to have someone there, that aside I hope something Good comes from the situation...
