did you want to belong to a social club but couldn't because it was "worldly" and witnesses don't get involved with the world?.
did you not go to college simply because witnesses say it's bad?.
did you deprive your kids of things because you were a "good jw"?.

we all have a little guage in us that measures the amount of respect we have for ourselves, our enviroment, each other, etc, etc, .
we can set a certain criteria and in some cases our level of respect can fluctuate with new information we take in that is either negative or positive........creating plus or minuses in our respect-o-meter.
we can not like something but still respect it.. loss of respect for a person, idea, business, ourselves can be devestating.
wow! everyone here has such great comments and insights. thinking about what i have read....we can only demonstrate as much respect for others as we have for ourselves....hhhmmmm. does that make sense? well, i guess i have to ponder this more. it is late 11 p.m. !

most people consider themselves to be a good person.
i have asked several people just in passing and with family members, and they have confirmed this.
when asked, "do you consider yourself to be a good person?
oops, i meant to say JIG.

Robin,
there is a lot of judging and testing in your perspective. very unhealthy, emotionally and spiritually. righteousness and goodness are very different. to be righteous would be to follow rules. to be good, transcends rules.

just adorable!
has anyone experienced something really outrageous among the jw's that you want to share?.
we once had a couple of jw's follow us (policeing us) as we were on our way to my (then, he's now my ex) husband's boss's home.
his boss wanted us over for an end of the year party and didn't consider it a christmas party because he knew we didn't celebrate christmas.
my incidents happened years ago. i am 42 now. i was 25-35 when the incidents occurred. i was about 38 when i left the jw's.
