I am a flirty, passionate, joyful over-the-top Pollyanna who agonizes over life-altering decisions but adapts easily to change, and is a fun-loving people person that enjoys being surrounded by friends and family.

~ Your feelings on aging ~
by FlyingHighNow inso, we aren't going to stay young and never die.

Ditto FHN. Hatin' it. BUT....I can't stop the growing older part but I will never grow up! I'm having more fun now than I ever have, I am smarter than I ever was and I am freer than I've ever been. I am not going to let my aging body stop me from feeling content happy and ALIVE!!!

Good for you. My viewpoint is that if I can stop one person from having a Bible study or continuing one then any effort I've made will be well worth it. Keep up the good work. You never know what kind of soil those seeds will be planted in. LOL

Very nice - I'm going to go through your videos and decide which ones to add to the apostate videos I've already posted on my Facebook profile page. Do you still attend meetings? Are you fading?

Do you change your mind easily?
by nicolaou inas ex-jw's we've all cleary changed our minds about what 'the truth' is but do you think you could make another big change like that again?
i honestly cannot see myself changing my mind about the non-existence of god and the supernatural - but hey, i was just as dogmatic in my jw days that those things were real!
i guess anything is possible but it feels as though with every passing year my options for change are reduced.

The more I know the more I realize how much I don't know. I hate making life-altering decisions and will AGONIZE over each and every one of them BUT once I've made up my mind I rarely change it anytime soon. Circumstances and new information may cause me to change it at a later date but once again the whole cycle of agonizing, trying to see alll angles, second guessing myself starts. I will not make a decision that is life altering with out giving TONS of thought to it. I go back and forth in my head but don't take action until I've made up my mind.

Stay or leave your spouse after leaving JWs - Do you have regrets?
by Awakened at Gilead ini am in a situation that many of you have faced... whether to stay with my spouse or not after having learned the falsehood of the org.. my wife is diehard witness who gets upset whenever i talk about the org negatively.
she is not happy that i am on jwd... in fact the other day she picked up the keyboard and wanted to throw it accros the room or bash me with it when she saw i was on jwd... she is also very upset about me making friends with "apostates" and worldly people, and told me never to bring them to our home!
this concerns me, since i am not going to have any friends in the org, and i need at least a few friendships...she doesn't want me to talk to the friends in the cong about my decision so that i don't share my doubts.

NONE. There were no kids involved but if there had of been, I would have been even quicker to leave. Different with a dad since mom's usually get the kids. If I'd been a man and had kids I'd have stayed to protect my kids as much as possible from the cult. More opportunity for deprogramming in my opinion.
