Hey there Snakes... Long time...
My only thought today is, it has to be about them as much as it is about us. Life isn't fair.
My dad still has a foot in. I imagine it gives him something social to do. Beyond that, if I proved that he is wrong, he is all alone, without the Borg, who does he have?
I would say me, but, that isn't happening. He keeps a fairly robust distance.
Our parents and loved ones still in have dependency issues, and the reward for leaving (value) must exceed the cost for them.
It's ok to leave behind people we have loved, if that is the choice you make. It's ok to be happy without believing JW relatives.
It's ok to forge ahead, and decide to be happy with the new life we choose to have.
Snakes, for you, because I have followed you from the beginning, I want you to get what you want, and I hope you get it. :)
