Multifarious, I hit your hello thread and was glad to see that someone so young would start thinking for himself, unlike some who didn't realize that they had a brain until their mid-late adulthood. I also saw your comment in the dead body thread and wondered if you would ever return. On my drive to work this morning I was actually thinking of sending you a PM to reassure you that humor, as you will find here, is an amazing healing tool. But, I saw your new thread, so I will put my words to you here.
First, I want to commend you for being an ADULT and confronting those who offended you, instead of labeling people here as bitter and heartless apostates, in your mind, and never returning. I know men and women 5, 10, 20 years older than you that need to take a lesson in addressing their issues and concerns w/ others. Please keep that quality about yourself, as you will find it necessary in your adult relationships. However, there are so many people here that are jaded, confused, and overwhelmed by, not only their experience w/ the WTS, but w/ the hardship of everyday life. You will find w/ more life experience how stressful and disheartening just keeping a roof over your head, having reliable transportation, and putting food on your table can be. Humor is an amazing way to release stress, lower your heart rate and blood pressure, and calm you down after a tough day trying to keep yourself alive.
Please be patient, slowly come to terms w/ your own doubts and concerns, and get to know a few people here. There are many kind and caring individuals that come out of the woodwork when they see people hurting. The night that my sister disowned me is the night I made my first post on JWD. Never in my life had people I never met before care for me when I needed it the most. I was welcomed w/ greetings, compassionate words, and a lot of hope for my future. After you are here for a while, you will realize this, as well. At worst, you can learn some life lessons about dealing w/ intolerance, ignorance, and well, some real jackasses (there are a few). I hope you stick around.
Enjoy your day and your weekend!
