Are we learning from our experiences and mistakes?
How can we do it? By finding out the truth. If we keep avoiding uncomfortable confrontations and questions, we will not learn and we will keep on doing the stuff over and over.
Did we learn from JW experiences? Why did we take so long to find out about them and moving away from them? Isn't that because we avoided confronting questionable things going on?
Are we keeping going with the same thing all our lives?
We just had uncomfortable discussion all day yesterday. I don't think it was negative thing. I learned to rely on my instinct and to move quickly from predicaments and move forward instead of staying stuck in the same position.
What I have learned from my experience is that God is giving everyone gifts for His purposes. God gave me gift of observation and I intend to use it for Him. I will keep on expressing my observation and convictions. Of course I have many opposers when I do (when I say "opposers" I mean people who don't agree with my convictions and opinions and would rather I not say anything).
sincerely,
hitomi
