After 20 years always having nagging doubts and thinking it was just me, I was sitting in the KH during a memorial talk for a sister who recently died. Shortly before she died she had decided she was one of the annointed. The annointed subject always bothered me and I kept putting it behind me like every other doubt. But this time, like a light bulb, I just realized: I DO NOT BELIEVE ANY OF THIS. Although at first I felt it was me, later through reading, and research and being away from the KH and being able to really think, I realized that the reason I didn't believe it is that it was all man made. I felt free finally. I didn't have to always judge people and always think I should be witnessing to them. I could really love everyone (or not). That felt right. That felt good. Although I miss some people and hope they will have their own light bulb moment one day, I am so glad to have the WT Society behind me. I work with many active witnesses who regard me from afar and that makes me sad sometimes. But I actually feel sorry for them that they are so clueless and caught in the WT claws. It is good to read everyone's posts; it has a healing effect.
