Hey guys,
So, it seems the hall I used to attend before my latest one got to hearing that I "disappeared". So today, I went to the post office to pick up a package...
I decided to try to face reality and open it... what I found were multiple letters and wrapped gifts. When I saw them, a wave of emotions hit me like a ton of bricks. I decided to not look at any of the cards or letters and threw everything out.
I know this is my choice and I'm not going back to what I was because I finally feel happy and know what's really going on, I just wished people would accept my decision. These people helped me when I was in their hall, but it seemed they had forgotten about me since I never received word from them... They were my best friends who stopped contacting me... Now all of a sudden they send me gifts and multiple cards/letters when it's too late?
I don't know why I'm posting this, but I feel like I needed to write it out somewhere. It's really rough...
Peace and love,
Garrett
did you really believe in things as ;- the earth is only 6000 years old- the 144.000- 1914, based upon the destructiono of jerusalem- harmagheddon or the end of the world coming soon???
?i married a jw when i was an interested person and studying with the jw's ( not the way they wanted) but i told my wife before marrying her that " most probably " i would never have been a jw.she accepted me as i was and married me.
after that i had interrupted the study for one year, i started all over again with an elder of my wife's cong.
When I got "recruited", I was around 14.
I never believed the Earth was only 6,000 years old, but then again, I don't think many witnesses believe that either. After all, the old green Bible used to have dinosaur pictures in it. They wouldn't put a picture of something they don't believe in, in one of their Bibles. So if they believe dinosaurs existed, they can't believe that the world was around for only 6,000 years.
I've always had my doubts about the 144,000. The explanation they gave me about how they were resurrected and how there were still some on Earth today.
1914 - I accepted and never really did much research on it.
Harmagheddon - Yes I believed it. At first I really believed it, but it slowly faded and after a while I didn't really think about it anymore. I think it's like that for some while others revel in the hope of it coming ASAP.
i was thinking that we could spend the memorial evening doing the exact opposite of what we used to do.. smile and laugh.
have fun.
dress comfortably.
i'm currently working something up to share with a few people.
i was wondering if anyone knew the current number (estimation) of child abuse cases that are going on (that we know about)?
i don't get much time to be on here right now but it seems that cases are sprouting everywhere.

Hi everyone,
I'm currently working something up to share with a few people.
I was wondering if anyone knew the current number (estimation) of child abuse cases that are going on (that we know about)? I don't get much time to be on here right now but it seems that cases are sprouting everywhere.
Is this true or is it multiple posts about the same or related cases?
Thanks guys and as always, peace and love,
Garrett.
a magician can demonstrate an empty hat from which, seconds later, he pulls a rabbit.
a rabbit in that empty hat?
in pre-enlightenment times, the easy answer was: magic was real--but--it was accomplished.
Hi Terry,
That was a marvelous and enlightening read. Thank you for posting.
I look forward to the next one.
a man is accepted into a church for what he believes and he is turned out for what he knows.. mark twaineveryone have a good weekend, and feel the peace and happiness of being "awake".
