Has anyone ever personally written to the Society?

i've been listening to marlene mercado's audio testimony on jwinfoline while reading and posting here today; and it reminded me that i had written to the society once, years ago, and i received a response.

the response made me angry with them, although they were agreeing with me on something that i was complaining about.

what made me angry was that they made no acknowledgment that they put a lot of pressure on the brothers to reach out and even after they have attained an office of oversight, a lot more pressure is put on the elders and servants to do more, do just so, etc....they claimed that it was my elder husband's own fault that he was barely ever home, and when he was, he was in his den or on the phone with someone who couldn't make any decisions on their own.

I haven't - but a friend of mine who started the journey out of the Borg at the same time did.

2 elders came to my door today, at noon sharp, and i opened the door to let them in.

they didn't want to come in, so they stood at the door and asked me, "what's stopping you from coming to the hall"?

they only come once a year and always around christmas time.
