I actually posted this on another thread in the Member's only area, and have decided that it warrants a more general discussion. There are thousands of people affected by disconnection and if anyone needs help at this time, here is a place to talk about it.
No matter how 'right' scientologists think they are to work so hard on destroying the lives and relationships of people who are "labelled", they really aren't. There is no escaping the consequences of destructive actions, even if we don't get to see it. Relationships based on the apparency of success and goodwill, that are in fact deliberate lies and misinformation, will eventually crumble and reveal the bleak emotional landscape within. Not a happy place.
This year my scientologist ex husband died, a gorgeous grandson was born and I am recovering from a major operation. Throughout that time I have experienced true love and support from dear friends on this board who are more my family than my (scientology influenced) birth family. At the same time the scientologist who for some reason sees me as such a threat has successfully managed to get three of my sisters, one daughter and goodness knows who else to disconnect from me and two of my brothers who refuse to buy the party line. The family has been successfully split in two.
Why?
Because scientology does not know about love, forgiveness and compassion. It’s all about the bottom line and how they are perceived, ie must be seen as successful and right no matter what. It’s a hollow dream and only achieved by deception. And it’s incredibly sad and unnecessary for all concerned.
So here’s to the people here who understand love and awareness.
And sending love to all those who struggle to make sense and survive disconnection.
