I was raised as a Jehovahs Witness from the age of two years, when my parents became Witnesses. The year that I turned 17 I was disfellowshipped. I have since that time been married and divorced, had 2 beautiful children, am in a loving relationship with a loving partner now, and I couldnt be happier. The Witnesses call on me from time to time and I take the magazines, only because I cant be rude and tell them to leave me alone. I do believe, but I dont need to be a Witness to have a happy fullfilling life. I am not evil wicked or worldly... Im just a normal woman.. living a pretty normal life I think. If my Judgement Day came now... I would like to think that I will be marked according to the good I have done in my life... not whether I was a Witness or not. Is that the traits of the truely Loving,Forgiving and Merciful God that the Witnesses preach about?????
