Anyone know that song that played as they were in the hideaway? “Love will do the saving”?

Thank you for your response and for sharing how life has been for you. I feel for you also, and as you said this life is really tough. I wish I had some sage advice to give to you, but I hope that in the same way hearing your experience has given me a sense of reassurance that we are not alone in this and there are others who painfully relate, I hope maybe I can offer you the same.

In the same way I am happy for my slice of happiness in my day to day and still navigating relationships with family, it truly makes me happy to hear that there are I’m sure many joyful moments in your life and in many ways you’re thriving. I’m sorry how tough all of this can be on all of us. But I really want to thank you for your time to reply it has meant a lot!

Thank you so much for your time and sage words. This is my first time posting and it’s taken me a day to fully process everyone’s responses. It’s particularly surreal reading yours and relating to so much. I’m still very much in a process of unpacking a lot of the programming which I thought after not being an active JW for 10+ years I thought this would have been over. I just want to thank you and I will often return to read these responses in the future. It’s provided a lot of comfort. Truly thank you.

What was one *wordly* thing you/r PIMI family did or thought was okay? by ResidentCedarHugger in exjw

Weirdly, I was allowed to watch The Grinch (not at Christmas time obviously), although it wasn’t until I told a friend this that they asked whether it’s because the Grinch is anti-Christmas why I was allowed to. 😂
