  Disturbed

  ordinarily i figure people are going to find their own way and that their life course is a matter of personal responsibility but occasionally i run into something that smacks me upside the head a little bit.

  yesterday i heard something about a young man that i knew decades ago.he was from a prominent family in the organization, the father was a successful businessman and you would see them frequently on the platform at circuit assemblies, etc.

  to be honest, i didn't particularly like the young man, i preferred the father, but the guy was bright and capable, we had mutual friends.

  Leaving it all behind.

  i haven't been on an exjw site for months and months.

  i frankly am way past the point where i define myself as an exjw, i am who i am and it doesn't have really anything to do with the way i was raised or spent a considerable portion of my life, i also refuse to be bound by witness requirements as to leaving, contact with witnesses, or some kind of responsibility to whack people who seem perfectly happy as witnesses over the head with 'the truth about the truth'.

  i have recently run in to a few people that seems to simply obsess with their lives as witnesses and why they left and in some cases the way they were treated or mistreated, or the need to "do" something.
