Hi Agnes -
Sorry I didn't get to finish my post..........
Remember that they are GUESTS in YOUR home. When they first bring it up, you must shut them down immediately; if you give them an inch they will take 784 miles. Just tell them you respect their beliefs, but while they are in your home, they must respect yours!
And have the phone number for the nearest hotel in your hands at all times.
Sincerely,
Maya

Well, I'll tell ya - When I first saw your pic, I was immediately drawn to it because I had that "I think I know him from somewhere" feeling. Then after going back and reading your posts, I realized maybe I had bumped into you when I lived out there (I'm now on the East coast). I'm a little afraid to give more info, because my entire family is still "in" and I'm still a little nervous being here.
But I want you to know that your bravery was one of the reasons I began to post here after lurking for a couple of weeks. It seems to me you are an amazing Dad to your girls, and I really enjoy reading your posts.
Sincerely,
Maya
Hope you have a great one!

(PS - I used to live in El Cajon and Santee)
you know, i'm envious of some people who are at home and happy in a group situation.
i miss not being part of a group.
but, i see no group that is lead by truth.
Good mornin' SS -
Me too; I miss the group thing. Over the past couple of months I have been thinking about seeking out a "group", but where??? I can't even begin to tell you how many weddings and funerals I have not been able to attend because I can't set foot in a church. I just cannot do it. And yet, I guess I don't trust myself enough to find "truth" on my own. I end up confusing myself into a migraine.
This is probably a stupid question but are there any "offshoots" of the JW's? I mean formally recognized groups that meet in the same location, have meetings, etc.?
Sincerely,
Maya
anyone going to the memorial this coming weekend?
i didnt want to, but my wife does.
i guess i will end up going....anyone else?
If there was a little group that met outside the Hall, I would most definitely be there. As far as setting foot inside the Hall..........well, let's put it this way ---- I'd rather put a steak knife through my eye, into my brain and then swirl it around a little.
Sincerely,
Maya
