  Pennycandy,

  My girlfriend was Df'd 2 or 3 years ago (for smoking) and she goes to the memorial every year. I plain out do not understand it...sitting in a room full of people that pretend she is not there and feel for sure that they have their gods blessing in waging psychological warfare with her. I dont understand how you can whorship in a group of people when they shut you out. What kind if energy is present in that room??

  She is still very protective of the troof, and I believe it is because the hold is still so very strong...So, some people do go to the memorial and subject themselves to what I consider to be a humiliating, intentionally degrading experience. It all depends on howm many of the JW chains you have broken.

  NO, I am far far removed from that.

  I did celebrate the Spring Equinox this morning honoring mother earth and the awakening of spring, did some drumming on my djimbe and planted seeds in decorated clay pots,among other things.

  How's that saying go about knowing the truth, and the truth will set you free???????

  i cannot remember my dreams usually, and i can't tell you the last time i dreamed about something jw related, years ago.

  i've been out so long that many of the things discussed on here, i look at and go, "oh yea, i remember that.

  " but last night i had the funniest dream!

  how many should partake this year at the memorial?

  how many of the original anointed, whose number was "sealed" in 1935 would likely be alive today?.

  i've examined the general survival rate of people of this age group in the us.

  Give Reasons Why You're Happy That You're No Longer A Witness

  one reason is that you don't have to go to boring meetings 5 times per week and field service where you knock on doors knowing no one will answer.

  Grace

  Your name fits you well. You have more grace then all of them, and you know you did the right thing.I am so glad you are well, and have found a place for you.

  "Living well and being well is the best revenge you can have."(or example you can set, if that works better for you)

  I have learned so much on this board in just the last few days, I feel like i am waking up from a 13 year sleep/stupor. I never once thought of all of the other df'd and shunned ones out there.and the pain they may be going through.I just left and never looked back. I will thikn about all of you every day and send you love and healing!
