BEW's ..........Irrational Thoughts

by LadyBug in

jw
friends

i have been having some pretty irrational thoughts lately.. its only been 3 months since we decided it is not the "truth".

but sometimes i think we (my family) would have been better off if we had stayed inactive witnesses.

the strain affects the whole family.. sometimes it feels like my whole world has fallen apart.

I think most of us have been through a lot of pain whilst getting out of the WTBTS.
I left very young and feel I was spared to a degree. That is not to say I didn't suffer; I did as I believe you know, but I did not have deeply held beliefs in the WTBTS.

When I left....I literally ran away and never looked back. In doing so, despite the support I had to survive the exit, I discovered that I HAD to do it for myself and BY myself.
That is not to say that the support was not necessary or appreciated....I just learnt that I musn't lean on it.
I had to find my own set of life rules and become the best person for myself with my own set of values and beliefs. I could not afford to do it any other way.

I guess what I am saying is.......do what you can for yourself and rely on yourself to make you happy. Strangely enough.....it works a special magic on all around you.

I feel your anguish BEW......and I know you are a special lady.....look a little deeper and you may see her too.

Love,
Ana

Hi Open Mind,

You are now where all of us have been; it hurts and is painful.....people we thought were our friends aren't....and others outright shun us.

Open, you can be sure of one thing....that will never happen here.

We do not always agree with one another....but we do not shun and judge.

A warm welcome,
Ana
