Circuit Assembly

As some of you may already know, I am one of Jehovah's Witnesses. It is the most important thing in my life, and I enjoy it so much. I was brought up in my religion and I can't imagine living any other way. I never felt like I was missing out because of not celebrating the holidays or birthdays, because we have parties and events all year long. On Sunday we had our Circuit Assembly, which we have twice a year. I got to see some friends that I haven't seen in a while, and there were some really great talks. The theme was on how to seek peace and pursuit it in our daily lives. It was really encouraging, and I always love the assemblies and conventions that we have because they remind me that I'm not alone in my beliefs. Worldwide we have over 7 million people, and the number is growing all the time. Another great thing is that everyone is always happy and loving. In this world it can be hard to maintain a positive attitude, but on Sunday I seen proof once again that it's not impossible. Everyone there is like my family, and not the type of family that you are forced to visit, or that have a title like aunt or cousin but don't really mean anything to you. They're the type of family that support and encourage you, that listen and understand.
