Not yet. This cult has a lot to learn. I don't think they've had their first lawsuit yet.
I had an "awakening" last night

The story
I almost forgot to tell you guys about yesterday. It was awesome.
A while back I posted something on facebook about how if you don't like Karma the bitch, you should meet her irresponsible little sister Kismet. It really was just a joke and a play on words, but I started sort of playing with this concept in life. I started expecting Kismet instead of Karma and life really seemed more fun
Yesterday was that kind of day.
Mimi the mailman and I had a date with Trotsky. Mimi was my friend from school when I was 12 who I went to Junior high and high school with and Trotsky (real name Marc) was the high school yearbook photographer. Currently Mimi the mailman lives a few miles south of me. Trotsky lives north of Jupiter where we all grew up.
So Trotsky invited me and my friend Mimi up to his place for a dockside dinner. He's a chef and has a good reputation so we figured it would be a really good free meal in a cool atmosphere. Would be worth the half hour drive for sure. Plus we really love spending time with old friends that we lost touch with and such. You guys know......
So the plan was we would meet at the beach at 3pm and hang out and enjoy the scenery and then have dinner at or about sunset and watch the moon rise over the intracoastal. I've never been to Marc's place but i've seen pictures and it's really nice, especially if you're into that rustic beachy boater type style. As kids who grew up in Jupiter it's right up our alley.
So when Mimi and I get to the beach we find Marc and he gives us both a big hug at the same time. He tells us how fabulous we look and asks us to go for a walk over by the beach. We follow him to a bench that's on a deck next to some stairs that lead down to the shore. We all three sit on the bench and start sharing stories about each other and laughing and having a great time.
People are walking by us to go down to the beach or the other way to get back to their cars. There was a steady stream of beautiful young people in swimwear walking past us. At one point Mimi shouted "Jupiter still has the best looking guys on the planet" and a couple of surfers thanks her for noticing. I asked Marc to take pictures and I swear it was just like time shifted for us. I felt just like that girl. I felt like the skinny girl with the long brown hair wearing a bikini at Jupiter beach with my good friend Michelle (Mimi's name from before college) and Trotsky the yearbook photographer.
Then it manifested.
Do you guys want to hear the rest? Are you still interested?

No smarty pants. I had to take a break to do some other stuff. Sorry to leave you hanging.
So there we were sitting when two cute girls in bikinis ran up the stairs and were laughing almost as loudly as we were. When I saw them it dawned on me that they were us. It also occured to me that they should be in OUR picture. I asked them to join us and have their picture taken with us. They loved it! We had so much fun with them and they were so cute. Eventually the little dark haired one asked "Are you locals?"
Mimi said that we graduated from Jupiter High School a long time ago.
Cute bikini girl said "what year?"
Trotsky said "73".
Now this is where the story gets just amazing as I don't even know what.
The little skinny girl with the dark hair says to Marc (Trotsky) "Do you remember Lance Block?"
You coulda knocked us over with a feather. It was like the whole Universe dissapeared except for the four of us. It was me and Mimi and Trotsky and the baby girl of Lance "Broadway" Block. Lance was just about the nicest guy who ever lived and possibly the best looking guy I ever met and a really good football player in high school.
Well I grabbed the kid and hugged her about as hard as I could and told her "Baby, you're Jupiter ROYALTY!" It got very emotional and we all just laughed and cried and she told us about her dad lately and we told her about her dad long ago. She called him on the phone and we took turns talking to him. It was truly amazing.
There are a few other details that I really can't share, but I'm just sayin' the odds against this happening this way on this day are just astronomical.
We finished off the day eating lamb chops cooked to perfection sitting dockside and watching the moon rise over the water as we continued to tell stories of things we never shared when we were young.
Was a beautful day.

I LOVE the reconnection stories! Makes me just wanna hug the world to see these things happening - whether they are related to Scientology escape or not, the finding of friends is fabulous! Now, my New Age side would ask -- what was the message you received from seeing yourselves in these younger people? Reminds me of a Girl Scout song from MANY years ago:
Make new friends, but keep the old
One is silver and the other gold.
Make new friends, but keep the old
One is silver and the other gold.

Thank you ALL for your kind words about this experience. Yes, it was kismet and I was totally in the zone and it made me cry too. The story wasn't about the writing because the story told itself. It all happened just like I wrote but with even more amazing details.
I have to agree with FinallyMe about reconnection. Reconnection is what saved me from the cult. Reconnection has been my therapy and my greatest source of happiness and joy since losing my faith. Reconnection is the ONLY thing that seems like a better purpose than what I thought we were doing for over thirty years.
I sang that song too, at girl scout camp. Connect and reconnect and always find new ways of connecting. I am still amazed that the things I got into Scientology for but never attained are all available outside of the cult readily and easily.
It's great to be free. Love is the answer.

Love is the answer, and of course the major sports.
If you have any pics to share that would be lovely!
