Making contact with family

by Crumpet in

jw
friends

some of you may know that my parents and whole family do not have any contact with me, apart from my dad who has provided his mobile number for "family business/emergencies".

i never try to contact them anymore after a negative experience after being beaten up trying to break up a streetfight last november when i called my dad and he hung up as soon as he realised it was me crying on the other end.. .

anyway - i decided that just because they want to forget about me i don't have to be the same anymore and i wanted them to know how happy i was.

i am going to canada in may for a holiday and want to take some books to read.

i really like to read fiction that is set in the place i'm visiting and i'd also be quite keen to start getting in the mood before i go.

so i was wondering if there are keen readers out there who could point me in the direction of any great canadian novels - particularly anything set around the great lakes - superior, hudson, ontario,michigan, erie....any suggestions very welcome!

...or are they just a source of nightly entertainment?

alternatively how directly do your day to day activities insert themselves into your dreams.

the reason i ask is because i had a dream last night which i think might actually be life changing.

i have only been a recent user of this site.

the other night i explained what it was i was spending time reading online some evenings when my boyfriend is out and tried to explain how it is helping me finally let go of the jw beliefs that i have clung to for so long.

i thought he would be pleased, but he got really angry and now is very difficult any time i try to use the internet at home.

did being a witness make you arrogant at school/work?

by Crumpet in

jw

i think that one of the lack of social skills the jws kindly invested me with was an acute sense of arrogance of being better than the rest.. this made me a very disruptive class member as i would twist my parents twist on the religion to make ridiculous points - which i did enjoy!

after studying the new (at the time) school brochure about extra-curricular activities the whole english class got dentention of ten minutes at schools out and the way my heart pumped as i packed up my stuff and made to leave.

the teacher yelled at me - what did i think i was doing?
