Congratulations!
I sent mine last week.........registered mail. I made some additions to fit my situation such as the fact that my ex is trying to get my children to shun me and I am ready to prosecute if they do. Also there is a rumor that I am involved in "apostate" activities with someone in the area. I told them these were slanderous also. They have no idea what to do with me now and that's the way I like it. I now feel that I am in control instead of the one being controlled. I agree it may not be the way to go for some but it has liberated me tremendously. I started it with: I am withdrawing my voluntary disassociation from......... This is because it is being used against me legally for reasons I will explain later.
Best wishes on your medical treatments...and may all your efforts be blessed.

thoughts about miscarriage
by silentlambs ini remember the date, may 15, 1991, it was the date my wife miscarried and a young life was lost.
there was no funeral, few remarks of support.
i will never forget the remark of my mother, well it never was really a baby after all.

Thankyou for taking us with you and showing such courage for children among us today.
I too, had a baby who lived and died beneath my heart. She was 7 months old and 2 months from her birthday. She took 25 hours to deliver. They put her in a lavender dress and booties with a bow on her curly black hair. She was perfect. I held her for as long as I could in my hands and let her lay on my chest. We named her Willow Rain. Willows are wild and free and beautiful like her and it was raining. That was March 2000.As I type, McKenna Rain is now sleeping in my lap. She was born February 22, 2001. Some day she can play in the shade of the tree.
To Willow Rain who lives in my heart and my husband who is my strength.

Most Hypocritical Act Witnessed As A JW
by goo inwhat was the most hypocritical act you personally witnessed during your incarceration as a jw?.
hypocritical acts you witnessed being performed by those claiming to be of the anointed are most especially welcome to be posted.. the person who posts the most hypocritical act will receive the complete box set of the bethel family sing the kingdom melodies vols 1 - 10 complete as first prize.. the runner up will receive two box sets.. i'll start off.. the most hypocritical thing i ever witnessed was the (married) co who ran off with the (single) special pioneer immediately after giving a talk at the district convention on "jehovahs gift of marriage".. sister special had the suitcases packed and the motor running out in the parking lot (located directly behind the platform) as co spiritual giant wrapped up his talk.
he finishes the talk then leaves the platform for the getaway car to a tumultuos round of applause from the massive crowd.. both last sighted somewhere slightly up ahead of a fading into the distance cloud of dust.. goo

How about the father who takes his daughter to give out-of-town Sunday talks who leaves Saturday, gets a motel room for them and molests her the night before? Spiritual giant, man of God, Jehovah's servant, pervert in denial.

Does the Watchtower break up famelies?
by OlderTom inmy word it does.. when i started studying with the witlesses all of my family and inlaws deserted me for following a stupit cult.
my wife divorced me and my children won't talk to me.. that's ok because according to jdubs that proves it's the truth.. as i progressed in "the truth(tm)" all my friends started to abandon me because i was always going to those booring meetings.. when i found someone i liked in "the truth" and started associating with her, some of my witness friends tried to break up the friendship.. ie break up another family before it even starts.. after i married her without getting the elder permission, some of my jdub friends tried to df me, to show how much they loved me.. when they failed to df me some of my witless friends decided to shun me anyway even though the elders pronounced us no guilty.. i should have sued the bastards for slander.
today i'd just give him (the instigator) a good hiding.

I don't think anymore that the WT breaks up families as much as it separates personalities. Open hearts.........closed ones. Independent souls .......... co-dependent souls. Once in a while I miss my family but when I see people look at me with disgust and no reason for it other than another person telling them this is the righteous thing to do and God approves of it, I pity them. I have since adopted a more loving and tolerant family of friends. These have been such a blessing at times when blood and family love was thinner than the veneer christianity it was supposed to be a fruitage of. "having no natural affection" ring a bell?

Celebrate with me today
by Esmeralda intoday, april 20th, is the fourth anniversary of a very special day in my life.. the anniversary of my rebirth.. this rebirth was not a religious experience, but it was something totally pure, amazing and healing.. it had nothing at all to do with the society, or rather, of freeing myself from it.
it was however, a giant first step in that direction.. today is the fourth anniversary of the day i got letter that changed everything.
the words on the pages were alive, and magical: they released me from my old life and for the first time.

Yup. It's me!!! Best wishes again to you and yours. Thanks for all your help and friendship. Someone once said, "It's not wise to count your friends on sunny days, count them when it's pouring". Hello, friend.
