Holidays and the family

One of the reasons I started this blog was for you kids to see the changes in my life and why I made them.
I wanted you to know first hand what happened and who I am. Right now we're in the middle of the holiday season. A season that should be about family and being happy with the people we love.
Well, my holidays are not like that. They are like every other day and while people are on Facebook posting pictures of them and their family visits, I'm watching Netflix.

Jehovah's Witnesses will say that I chose this life. I left the family. As stated in previous blogs, this is simply not true. I am here and always have been here for my family to rely on if they wanted to. But they don't. They don't because of a stupid religious mandate.

I found this quote this morning and I found it pretty appropriate to the circumstances.

Sound familiar?
