Awakening

Over the past few months, I have been watching creditable news reports and documentaries on child sex abuse inside religions.  I want to help stop human trafficking and sex abuse.  I have seen many court documents that brought me to tears.  In particular, the hundreds of stories relating to the Jehovah’s Witnesses have made me so angry!

I left all religions when I released my autobiography, but never did I realize how bad it truly was inside the Watchtower organization.  If you are a victim, please go to the police and seek counseling as soon as humanly possible.  My heart is breaking tonight for all the victims.  I want to shoutout a huge THANK YOU to Romy Martin and Barbara Anderson for the outreach you continue to do for survivors.  Mrs. Anderson was on the ground floor of the JW Headquarters for many years, so her insight was mind-blowing. She seen the crimes swept under the rug by the governing body.  Not all people who practice JW are bad, but the religious organization is rotten to the core.  The coverup of rapists and pedophiles is sickening.

My eyes have been open wider than I ever thought possible and I know telling the truth is the only way to limit the crimes!  I still have a strong relationship with God and I firmly believe Jesus died for all of us, but I will never set foot in a religion ever again!  I will defend victims and speak out for those who have taken their life because they were in a hopeless situation!

Much Love

We have to stop meeting like this....

Tonight I talked to myself.  I said,” self, why do you feel the way you do?”  Then I said,” self, we have to stop meeting like this because it's one o'clock in the morning”!  I laughed because regardless of the predicament I find myself in, sometimes I don't understand why I do the things I do. Have you ever had a random thought and wondered, “why did I think about that?.  I try to ignore my random thoughts and feelings, but sometimes they just come out when I least expect it. Example 1 ~ When I forget to take my medication, I feel everything.  The depression, sadness, and pain flood in, and all I can do is cry myself to sleep. Example 2 ~ I was watching season three of Anne with an E tonight, and it hit me.  I was crying and feeling very sad.  I should be happy because it was a beautiful ending. However, my mind was thinking about how they loved each other in their youth and found each other again. Right now, in my life, love songs and anything sappy makes me cry.

Beauty in the chaos

Early voting started Friday, so I went to town and voted in the States Primary.  It was a peaceful drive, and then Friday night, we watched the movie 2012. There are so many theories and conspiracies floating around online that the movie made me think about all of them. My thoughts quickly turn to religion and how none of us know when our lives will end. Humanity has gotten it wrong, so many times, and religious leaders continue to attempt to guess, but even the Bible says no one knows. One thing that I know for sure is the earth is a breathtaking place, and I continue to find small glimpses of its beauty amidst the chaos.  Just yesterday, we went to Fall Creek Falls State Park, and I took a dip in the cold water. Families and children were everywhere, laughing and playing.  You would never think that the USA is in an uproar. I saw no signs of social distancing or a pandemic.  I didn't see any mask.  Men were walking their dogs, and the beautiful smells of wood burning flo
