  I am thankful for my husband who is a fantastic man, dad and friend. He spoils me .

  I am thankful for my sons, who are all smart, athletic and healthy.

  I am thankful for my sisters and mom.

  I am thankful that my job and my husband's job are stable and pay well.

  I am thankful that we have good health insurance.

  I am thankful that I am able to enjoy a life free from the bonds of the lies of JW's. My life is soooo much more peaceful and content now.

  I am very, very thankful for JWN and all of the support and help it offers. I can't thank this website and others like it enough.

  Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!!!

  Watched this movie on the IFC channel yesterday. It was excellent. I would recommend that everyone watch it.

  It is about a young witness girl who gets a worldly boyfriend. Her family life is unstable due to her dad's infidelity. Her mom has moved out of the house. Her older brother is DF'd . It's an amazing movie.

  Missing a big part of life

  i celebrated christmas for 17 years before my parents became jw's.. when we became witnesses my dad got rid of decades worth of christmas decorations.. my grandparents came over from austria during ww 2 and ornaments from their parents were hung on our tree.. the tradition went on up to the mid 70's,, we had many old ornaments that were just thrown out when the wt society thinking.

  took over.. now that i am in my late 40's and have gone full circle, we will be celebrating the ho;lidays this year.. .

  shopping at target last night i fully realized what my family has lost.

  "Decades worth of memorable decorations were disposed of in line with JW teachings"

  I understand completely how you feel. When I was young, my grandma had a ceramic christmas tree with lights on it. I loved that thing. Now that I am celebrating holidays (2nd year now), I wish I had that tree to put on my mantle. It had fond memories attached to it. I truly hope you and your family are able to make new, special traditions together as the years pass.

  alot of members don't have a flag or country name beside their user name, and well frequently one doesn't know where that particular person is from, tell us your country, state, county or what ever you feel like giving out.

  if you are going to post please at least devulge your country.. me, i'm originally from taranaki, new zealand via auckland.

  for the most of this decade i have been living & working in brisbane, queensland, australia.. .

  Babygirl75-

  I would like a Coach briefcase/bookbag for work. I'd take a used one in good shape. I'm going to buy my hubby a CD player for his truck. This is my second year celebrating and I LOVE it!!!!

  "I've encountered many children who say their parents aren't home."

  The potential for disaster with this situation makes me sick to my stomach. It's disgusting and dangerous for these people to be going door to door.
