See them everywhere
by callitquits76 infirst of all let me say hi, ex witness of 19/20 years here - left the borg about 6 or 7 years ago now.. just when i think that i am away from them for good, there is some knock on the door, a familiar face, or something in the media which brings it all back.
how i would love to just let it go and live life to the full without remembering what i went through with the witnesses.. just last week it came back to me again, a knock on the door and i was caught totally offguard.
i made my excuses and basically closed the door in their face but after i lamented on how i should have fought my corner, like i used to when i phased myself out.

I'm done obsessing the JW's! Now my life can really start.
by QuestioningEverything innine months ago, my whole world was rocked sideways and upside down!!
it all started with a search on the internet about jw's and 1975. little did i know what i was going to see when i came on here-jwn and freeminds.org.
needless to say, i was totally devastated to learn how that the "truth" was not really the truth.

Hello from Jabberwock
by jabberwock ini have been lurking around here for a few months and i'm really excited about participating in some of the discussions.
i have already enjoyed several late nights and early mornings catching up on some of the older posts.. .
when i first came across a link to this board my hand trembled as i held an outstretched finger just above the mouse button not quite sure whether i was prepared to go past what seemed to me to be the point of no return.

Niece is getting baptized this summer..Advice
by outofservice inmy husbands niece called him last night to proudly announce she was getting baptized this summer.this actually was a bit of a surprise to us.since she is 27 and was raised in the truth.
the family is not go getter witnesses.
they seem to just do the basics to get by and we figured since she had not gotten baptized in her teens like most of us born in's she just was not that in to it.
