I would go for a bike ride on Saturday morning and feel guilty for not being with the service group, even though I knew that it was wrong to be helping them spread false dates that were trying to coerce people into a cult that will probably separate them from friends and family and encourage shunning. It takes a while for emotions to catch up with logic. But it happens.

Hey PE.... This is what also happened to me, a born-in 5th generation very visible elder. In 2010 after I turned 50, my then wife and I started a fade. We were scared to lose our children and grandchildren to shunning. Then my wife left me. So, my business was in a decline, my religion was a joke, my 30 year marriage failed, and I risked loosing my kids. I felt so lonely always even though I was never DFd. My parents and extended family ignore me.
I hated it when people told me that "time will heal", but, it is true. I figured that Dr Time must be a quack. A cut on your arm is easy to monitor as it heals, but our emotions and brains are harder to monitor through the healing process, and can be full of ups and downs. It is like loosing weight. Years of junk food don't disappear in a week. The desire to go back to junk food is often strong, but exercise and good foods eventually change you and you can reach your goal.
My passion was my grandkids. But also, I read science, (hi cofty), history, took classes at community college, joined a few Meetup.com groups. I remember the day near Bishop, California when I hiked through the 4700 year old Bristlecone Pines at 11000 ft elevation growing out of white rocks that used to be a limestone seabed and proving to myself that no flood waters covered it 4600 years ago. I promise you that at 31, it will likely be worth it. I got my kids out when they were early 30's and we are a happy group of xjw's with new productive ways of life. I occasionally have some strange dream like giving a talk at the assembly and I can't find my notes. But JW influence is 90% gone. Be patient with yourself and understand that you have some damage. It will likely turn out better for you and your daughter someday if you stand for what is right.
Also, a friendly wave to you single ladies out there:)

There is science that prove God exists
by HopeEverLasting injehovahs witnesses think that just the bible is proof that god exists but they are wrong.
there is another mode for how he exists.
now we all know many scientists who are creationists now weren’t creationists until they examined the evidence for themselves.

What other crazy comments do you need to revise because of your lack of thought?

poetry is stupid? You hate the Psalms from your Bible? Or are you just speaking more nonsense?

Yes, there are scientists who believe in divine involvement. Also, there are doctors who get sued for malpractice, and Electricians who die from severe shock. You prove nothing. Don't rely on others education or lack of it. Teach yourself.

You insist on being ignorant of available facts which may assist you. So....I guess you may as well be proud that you know 1000's of years of unproven superstition.

hey hope everlasting, at one time it was obvious that flying would never be possible. It was also obvious that there were only 4 elements, fire, water, air, and earth. Your logic is from the same time period. Such arrogance and fear of knowledge stops such ones from learning.
