In memory of Jeff...

by nsrn in

i was just remembering a childhood friend.

jeff was 2 years older than me, and our mothers were good friends, lifelong witness sisters.

jeff's dad was 'worldly,' and i can remember being envious that jeff didn't have to go out in service and was allowed to miss many meetings.

Goodbye all

I'm jumping on this wagon a little late but wanted to add my

You are a true treasure here. I have often felt the reaction of pain and anger and hate you seem to be describing, and it really can be overwhelming, but please remember that the antidote is close to hand in all these success stories which are yet in progress.

17 Days: One Final Adventure

by Merry Magdalene in

i once posted here a copy of my empassioned plea to the watchtower society--i want my mother back.

well, i just wanted to let all of you know that i got her back for a whole 17 days, and we had one final adventure together before she died, and there wasn't a damned thing they could do about it.. my mother is, was, a long-term loyal jw and i was her disfellowshipped daughter.

i believe she was in an almost constant state of conflict over me because her very strong maternal instincts demanded she behave openly and lovingly toward me, while her wts-trained conscience demanded the opposite.

Merry Magdalene

Thank you for smiling and crying with me. You all make me feel extra extra blessed. We need to have a great big 8-day apostafest, like the old NY conventions my mother attended as a girl and young woman. There are so many here I want to meet SO much!!!

Thank you all so much.

All I can say is it is the true mutual love I experienced that brings me such deep peace in regard to my mother and yet fuels my loathing of the Watchtower Society's teachings and policies. So many have been duped for so long. I feel great pity and compassion for many of them, as well as for the rest of us.
