NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Heaven said it best: " No. Once you see the man behind the curtain, the magic is gone. Once trust is broken, you can never truly trust again. I prefer to move forward than go back. I left for a reason and those reasons have not changed, hence I would never go back."

A BILLION DOLLARS!!!
This explanation really helped me come to terms with these huge numbers, in a format I could understand. It says:
So the difference between a million and a billion is the difference between 11 ½ days and 31 ¾ years (11.5 days vs. 11,315 days)!
after much deliberation, i decided to go "out" at the end of a public talk.
it didn't go down too well, but at least i was able to give some of my reasons for leaving.. i've put some of the details on my homepage.
i'll update it more when i get the time and the strength.
I totally forgot about this. Glad someone resurrected it. Has anyone been in contact with Little Toe or Xena recently. An update would be cool. Glad they are out living their lives.

I lived there for 2 1/2 years and am seriously trying to move back. Hopefully by the end of the year. I LOVE California.
i know many of you have felt this way but it still hurts.. i was doing fine, great actually but then all of the sudden a huge wave of pain hit my body out of the blue.
man its so hard living this life, always pretending, except when you're alone.
i feel like its eating me from the inside.. so many times i want to just give up, on both sides.
OneDayIllBeFree - please don't give up. Most of here have been where you are now but it does get easier. It's hard coming out of the matrix, but you need to focus on making more friends on the outside and pursuing things that you love or have always wanted to try. Even 10+ years later, I lie to my family members. They know I don't go to meetings anymore but it doesn't stop them from trying to save me. Sometimes I just want to totally let them know that I am "apostate" so that they will forever leave me alone.
Transhuman68 - LOVED the poem...so true!
sorry if this has already been posted, i enjoyed it, you might want to check it out..
OMG, ohiocowboy...I had no idea you went through that back then. I wish we both knew then what we know now, I would have totally taken you in. It makes me so sad that you went through so much sadness at such a young age. I use to have so much respect for your parents, I loved them like family but after I heard about the way they treated you, I lost all of that. I blame it on the cult. If they had not been in it, maybe your life would have turned out differently. But hopefully, you are happy now. We need to catch up. Are you still in Dallas? Going to be there in February. I'll email you.
i've been thinking how correct the witnesses are regarding an aspect of xmas.
it is totally commercialized and it's big business and materialism.
having said that, i enjoy giving presents and recieving them.
Born into the JW's-been out about 10 years. This is the first year that I have had a tree. My husband says that he's not comfortable with it and doesn't want to do a tree next year. I can take it or leave it. We only did it this year for the grandson.
we miss you, hope to see you soon.
your dad will be wondering where you are at the resurrection.
love, bro.
“Judge not, and you will not be judged; condemn not, and you will not be condemned; forgive, and you will be forgiven;
I would text that back to him- who made him the judge of who will be at the resurrection!
what saying made it all around the country?.
the ones that were passed around, word of mouth.. for example.
"donations basis proves jehovah is behind the work!".
My favorite (with sarcasm) is: "The light gets brighter"
the next halliburton?.

This kind of stuff makes me wish I lived in a different country but probably all governments are corrupt.
