  Just wanted to say hello

  i've only very recently discovered this site and have been reading many compelling personal accounts and testimonials.

  i'd like to share my own as well.. i was born into 'the truth' in the early 1970s.

  along with my several (fleshly) brothers and sisters, i went through the usual travails of a witness boy - not celebrating birthdays, not pledging allegiance to the flag, not singing christmas carols in the class chorus.

  Should I attend a JW funeral?

  by Flat_Accent in

  i mean, i had respect for the guy, and it's obviously right to be there for the family and show support.

  however, i can imagine what it will be like going back.

  i was friendly with a lot of the older, tougher sisters, so i'm sure they'll get on my case.

  Why not, if you want to pay your respects to him this way, do it. Totally agree with Qcmbrs post, you are accountable to yourself, and as you say, you feel you should go.

  If anyone gets pushy, keep calm and politely suggest it is not the time nor place for such conversations. If a visit is pressed on you, simply smile and say "No thank you".

  All the best.

  Yes jam, I was well in and a few weeks away from baptism, the JW "friend" who accompanied me, well, I thought she was there to support me, but it seems she was there to make sure I didnt step out of line.......

  Ive said sorry to my mum out loud, and in my head, and have tried to put it behind me, and I celebrate her now, all the time really. I like sitting by the grave, just remembering good times, and enjoying the quiet, and i totally understand how you feel a sense of closeness. It may be real, it may be imagined, but its comforting.

  Hope you doing ok x

  My mum used to say "Dont bring me flowers when Im dead, give them to me now!" ......I did. But I still like to visit her grave and lay flowers on special days that mean something to us, and occasionally when I just need to be alone and need peace and quiet. I find it comforting now, as I wasnt allowed to participate in her actual funeral at the time. You are right, death IS unfair.

  i'd like to talk to a jw victim of child abuse by a jw molester.

  it doesn't matter if you have gone public or not, but would like to be interviewed.

  if you want to remain anonymous, you will be accommodated.

  i changed my fb profile pic to sparlock and liked him.... i am no longer worthy to attend a camping trip lol.

  maybe i should use the time to make an animation... it's dark and quiet in a family backyard when all of a sudden... the garbage bin begins to rattle.

  a 'knock, knock, knock.

  Im going camping on Sunday for a week in a 9 berth tent, you are welcome to come along. We will be going to Tenby, Wales. Unfortunately, we will be taking the guitar and multiple bottles of beer, maybe its not your kind of thing?

  Seriously, Im sorry youve lost your holiday, Im sure you can find other things to occupy yourself
