A wonderful story...thank you so much for telling it. That's why this site must never be closed. Everyone with doubts needs to read accounts like this to gain strength and courage. Just knowing that whatever you are undergoing at the hand of the organization is not an isolated incident..that you are not alone, puts one on the road to freedom.

A husband and wife are getting ready for bed. The wife is standing in front of a full length mirror taking a hard look at herself.
"You know, dear," she said. "I look in the mirror and see an old woman. But there is a bright spot, the doctor told me today I have the breasts of a twenty year old woman.
"Ha," her husband snorted , "but what about that fifty year old ass of yours!"
The wife replied calmly, "Dear, your name never came up."

tonite , i was afraid of the feelings i might have passing thru the area where my mom and dad grew up , where all of my family still lives, and where my mom is buried.. my son, jake had a game in natchitoches and we had to go right thru the area to get there.
i decided at the last moment to stop my grandfathers place.
when he died it went to my mom, but since she was dead before him, it goes to my sister and i. .
What a beautiful and touching post. I got goosebumps reading it.

i feel like a total idiot.

Moving on is tough, I know. Losing your religion AND a loved one is a life changing experience. Especially when you've been counting on seeing that parent or child in the resurrection, and then find out there ain't gonna be no resurrection, as least not as the Watchtower portrays. Take care.

i have heard about this forum from someone, but i won't say who as i don't want to expose them.
i am in the process of evaluating my life as a jw.
it has been a pretty sad life - without a real feeling of 'belonging'.
