I can't stand the song that talks about molesting bees...among many others.

District Convention Mischief?
by jws indoes anybody have a list of convention dates and a hi-res scan of a convention badge?.
i remember all of those talks about behaving at assemblies and all of those talks about setting a good example.. .
what if people were to go to an assembly, looking exactly like a jw, but behaving like a jw could never get away with?.

1 year sober today...it can be done!
by digderidoo injust wanted to post here to say i am now 1 year sober.
funny thing is i don't miss drink at all, it took a 3 or 4 months of hard work about 18 months ago and have not looked back since.. this is my first thread about the aa, posted january 2008.. http://www.jehovahs-witness.net/jw/friends/150354/1/went-to-aa-meeting-last-night.
i would encourage anyone who thinks they may have a problem to get help, it is out there.. since i have become sober i am now doing a law degree, took up scuba diving, got my kids involved in snorkelling, scuba, horse riding and shooting.

Congratulations! That is wonderful to hear.
I went to my first AA meeting today with my sister. She's a recovering alcoholic and recovering JW...she said that AA helped her fill in her spirituality gap once she left the organization and thought it would help me too. It was interesting to hear what everyone had to say about their own personal stories. I think I'll go to another one.

I sent in my letter yesterday and it was very liberating. They should have received it today. I edited it to be more professional and to the point. After I mailed it, my hubby and me went to celebrate at a local mexican restaurant that makes the BEST Long Island Iced Teas. Got a good buzz and walked over to the movie theater to watch "Drag Me to Hell" - which was a pretty silly movie, but silly enough that you had to laugh at it more than be scared.
I told my dad last night that I sent my letter in. He said that he didn't think I would do it, but that it was my business and I told him that I am still me, but that I just choose not to be a witness anymore. I haven't been able to talk to my mom personally, but I sent her an email.
Now that I have free time, I have been thinking about taking some belly dancing lessons. It's something I have always wanted to do. I've gone to a Buddhist seminar/vegetarian dinner with my sister. It was interesting and the people were very nice. I'll probably go back with her again. I like the meditation part. I have some yoga dvds that I am going to start practicing to help with inner peace and exercise.

Thanks for all of your kind words and support.
The only reason I was going to include a copy of my license is becuase when my hubby mailed in his letter, the PO asked me if I actually saw him sign it and send it in, "because anyone can send in a letter and make it appear that it is coming from another person". I thought if I sent a copy of my license, they would see it is from me and maybe not bother me about it.
As for the consequences...I never had any real friends at the KH so it's not like I have a lot of people that I care about that will be shunning me. Even when my hubby and I were both in, we'd try to invite people to do stuff with us, but it seemed like no one would make time. It felt like we were trying to "reach out", you know the old saying that you got to be a friend to make a friend.
There was only one family that kinda took me in after my hubby left. I will miss them and their girls, but that's about it.My parents are witnesses, but not really hard core. My sis is df'd and living an alternative lifestyle according to JW's, but my parents will still talk to her. My dad says that he "can't just throw her away". So I figure my parents will still talk to me, but they definitely don't come to visit as often as they used to. Same thing with my brothers, they are both in and even though they know I don't go anymore, they still talk to me on occasion. I dunno, if they decide they want to let a bunch of mindless drones tell them not to associate with me, then that's their perogative. Everyone has a right to believe what they want ....
*music swells*
And as for me, determined I shall be, to walk away from this and to live my life freeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee.

Hello. I'm new to this forum and am also sacolton's wife. Alot of you already know about me because he's talked about me on here before...even has posted pictures, at which he incurred my wrath upon my discovery. Anyways...I'm about to submit my letter of disassociation to my local congregation and I thought I would share it. Please note that I was sippin' some bubbly last night and got a little tipsy while composing my draft. I haven't decided if I will keep the cuss words in it... I think it comes across as unprofessional, yet at the same time, it's the way I feel so I dunno.
Your comments are welcome...

Kingdom Hall of Jehovah’s Witnesses
This letter is to inform you that after a time of considering things, I, yippyskippy007, have decided to disassociate myself from the Jehovah’s Witness religion/organization. This decision is of my own free will, and I fully understand the consequences of my actions.
I do not agree that I should not be allowed to associate with my sister because she has been disfellowshipped. She is proud to be who she is, and I am happy for her. You can also note that I have been enjoying holidays and my own personal birthday for the very first time of my 29 years, and find nothing wrong with celebrating life and sharing special occasions with those you love.
Also, I absolutely can not stand to go out in the preaching work. I only put in my measly one to two hours so I would not be marked as “irregular”. I agree that people should not be “luke warm”. You either believe everything 100% percent or you don’t. You can not sit on the fence, and I have decided not to anymore; therefore I am submitting this letter of resignation so to speak.
Another note to point out, after thorough research, I have come to a “new light” that this organization is complete bullshit and can not possibly be regarded as the “truth”. So with that being said, fuck you very much for wasting my time and stealing my childhood. Oh yeah, I cuss like a sailor too and always have so put that in my “file”.
I have discovered since during my period of being inactive, that now I am much happier than I ever was as a Jehovah’s Witness. Now I feel good about myself rather than not feeling good enough and living in fear of not doing enough for this organization.
Again , to reiterate, I wish to disassociate myself willingly and completely by my own choice/free will. I have included a copy of my driver’s license so that you can compare my signature and know that I have sent this letter myself and it isn’t a “hoax”.
Please do not attempt to contact me whether it be by phone, email, mailed correspondence, or in person. Any attempt to do so will be considered harassment and subject to legal action. You cooperation in this matter is appreciated.
Sincerely,
yippyskippy007
P.S. I am an “eco-maniac” and have taken the liberty of recycling all of the 1000’s of watchtower and awake magazines I never placed out in service because I always fake knocked and doorbell rang to avoid potential embarrassment AND I only did this because your paper is too harsh to wipe my delicate anus with. Have a nice day.
