Very good point you have made. But they have already agreed to reinstate me, so there is no way im going to call them up and say. Hey guys, forget the reinstatement. Ill go back and then make more sound choices. Being jw is still my foundation. Call it brainwashed but at least being reinstated right now will make me fell a bit more stable. Once im back i can decide what to do...but for right now. This is what i want and this is what i need. What the future holds i do not know.

On the other hand, if it really is Jehovah you're there for, then the appreciation for His ways and principles will allow you to bring out the best in yourself and others around. The key is personal study, your relationship with Jehovah. Every day. If you can keep to that, you'll still get the opposition, but you'll have Jehovah on your side. And nothing can beat that. It's a matter of focusing on Jehovah's Kingdom and His will; the rest pales incomparison.
I couldnt have said it better. This is how i feel 100%.

I don't understand why someone would want to go back once they realize it isn't the truth just so their friends and family will acknowledge them
My friends acknowledge me now, and know why im coming back. And the brothers probobly know the same thing.

I agree with you. It is an enviornment of negativity. But i am no longer effected by it. I have read the bible and learned of gods grace. So i will not let the bs get to me. I am going back, but in no way am i going back naive. No longer will i guilt trip. and no longer will my self worth be directly proportional to how well i do according to watchtower guidelines. I will go back serving god and not serving men. I am now my own man. I will not be owned or manipulated bt wt doctrine. But i am not 100% against them. Ill just have to go back and figure it out for myself. May even visit a church or two.

Hope you have a happy life living a lie.
Well i think to a certain lots of people live some kind of lie. Some people stay married for the kids. Stay at a job they hate because of the benefits. So i think im just gonna "make the truth my own" For lack of a better term. Like they say if it doesnt work i can fade.
