Hey Dudds! Good to see you back!
Of course Tansy missed you Dudds - you are the only one who takes any notice of him!
Welcome back Dudds!

That seems at odds with the PM you sent me last week, asking for advice about that nasty rash. :confused2:
But I still love you Tansy - even if you left thigh is about to melt from the rash!
Well, glad your "Rash" is clearing up.
Speaking of physical things, have any of you seen Tom Cruise's video
on the net of "We are the only ones..."?
He's a riot! The media are all over it. Check Utube, if you've missed some of the media stories--but just like my escaping out of Scientology--a big reason
why I did was due to the exact "True Believer" Junk he's emulating.
I was just as bad, and thrilled to be OUT!
Tory/Magoo~~~
I have never responded positively to anyone who has "preached" to me and I don't believe I ever will. Cruise's comm comes across as preaching to me. I find it a complete turn off, but the indicators are that others want to be preached to. Cruise makes Amos in Cold Comfort Farm look positively mild.
Tory - do you practise anything for "spiritual development" these days?

I agree with you: I love Beagles, and would love to have one
One day---One day----

Tory - do you practice anything for "spiritual development" these days?
Yes, I do, but I don't really talk about it. It's personal, and gives me great
joy, strength and peace.
My best to you,
Tory/Magoo~~
Ok, Tenstaafl---first off, of course people don't like being preached to,
and THAT'S why it's SO cool that this film is on the Net: IT SHOWS
the serious mind control TC is going through: You can see it in his eyes.
HE Tells where exactly he's at re Scientology, and there's no--"oh, it's just
my religion" any more: This guy is seriously saying THEY have the only answers.
Scarry.

Good to hear, Tory.
Getting spirituality going again in my life was something that I found very difficult after Scientology. But it's starting to happen again for me.
I think, for me, it's a sure sign of healing.
Alanzo,
Does it appear strange to anyone else that so many people who post here seem to be still stuck in the preparation phase of living life - instead of just living life?

I can't see that at all. Why would you think that?
This message board only represents a part of life concerned with healing, discussing, moving on which in turn is reflected in everyday life anyway.

Alanzo,
I look at this a somewhat differently than many of the people who post here. It seems to me that rather than playing the game of life, many people are on an endless runway of becoming more spiritual so that they can then do ..... whatever it is they want to do.
I suppose if becoming more spiritual is one's game to play (though I don't see how that concept is even real - we ARE spiritual) then fine, figure-figure away on the minutia of becoming more spiritual.
For me, it's the game of living that is where all the action is at.
Scientologists tend to become so divorced from actual game playing - the games that are available to play in the world around us: interacting with others, making a career, raising a family, being creative (creativity is practically banned in Scientology). Try mocking up a new game in a Scientology environment and you will shortly see what I mean. Does "other fish to fry" ring a bell?
Instead, it's just drill drill drill, figure figure figure, prepare prepare prepare .... endlessly. This is kind of like never graduating from college.
Since I've left Scientology - my own personal end of endless quest to prepare myself to play games ...... well .... I just started playing other games. The weird thing about Scientology is that one is always preparing but never arriving anywhere.
So, when you asked Tory if she was still pursuing some form of spirituality, it jogged these thoughts which I humbly present. No offense anybody.
