This is such a difficult time for you to go through. You can be an example to THEM with you unconditional love. When they are at their meetings you can tell and show your mom your love for her. Your daughter will lighten the load for you too. Children are so sweet(most of the time). Just treat them kindly and "heap firey coals on their heads" as the Bible says.. I am sure your loving personality will shine through and you can make peace with your mom. I wish my mom was still here. Keeping you and your mom in my prayers.

Because most of us are sharing the same road in our lives...exjw's and also because we love unconditionally.

So I Finally Dissassociated Myself...
by arecibo inhi guys, .
just want to say how great it is to be able to talk to people in the same situation.
sometimes it feels like there's no-one who can really understand what it's like being brought up in the jws.

Welcome to the "we're out" club. You and I will have to get together each June to celebrate. I just sent my disassociation letters out last Thursday. It is a big step to take to make that last step out and I am sure we will shake that tar off in time. Congratulations on your courage...Arwen

Thanks for all your kind words.. I really need them. It was a very hard thing to do....the final cut so to speak...I just kept delaying it but I was helped by my best friend Gladdy/Meljon who is and never was a JW and it was kind of like getting out of an abusive relationship. These are the feelings I am having now...I am relieved as I won't have to worry about elders visiting me and friends trying to talk me into meetings, etc. I am empowered as I know the truth about the "truth". It is truly a cult and if any of you are lurking and frightened to post like I was a year ago then let me be an example to you. You can break free. I am still a good person, I still love God and his Son, I still pray. I am still loved by my family and friends.

arwen's disassociation letter June 8, 2006
by arwen injune 8, 2006. .
dear .
there are many things that i could say....many true accounts that i could attest to of unjust acts done to people and inexcusable sufferings caused by many in the congregations of jehovah's witness to others, at times by myself as well sadly, but there is nothing anyone can do now to make up for the wrongs that have been done to those that have been hurt....leave it in jehovah's hands that is what i have been told by those in charge., this has always been the answer....so i will do just that knowing that he will repay those who have treated others so badly and that continue to do so.

June 8,2006 To Whom It May Concern: This is to notify the Charlottetown Congregation of Jehovah's Witnesses and the Watchtower Bible and Tract Society that I wish to disassociate myself completely from each and every aspect of these groups. The Watchtower Bible and Tract Society joined the United Nations in 1992 as a non-governmental organization and lied about its reasons for joining to its members. For this reason and many others that I have become aware of through research, I can no longer with clear conscience be a part of this organization. If my name is slandered in any way by saying that I am disfellowshipped instead of disassociated, I will be forced to resort to legal action for slander of my good name.
