Well, Hello Kathy.
What adventures one undertakes in life, eh? I was quite moved to read your story and it did touch my heart in a lot of ways being that I was there to share a part of it with you. I have enjoyed filling in a lot of blank spaces as to what you had gone through before we met. It helped me understand just what we were experiencing. You certainly had quite an adventure after life took us apart in different directions!
I am glad you have found your happy place now. I am sorry your experience in Scientology was so bad. It is quite common to see such things happen to people when the whole process has now become one of control and power, rather than allowing a person to freely search for his own truths and then be allowed to live according to them.
But, I think in time, like the course of all things in this universe, life will find a way to achieve what life always wants to achieve. In time, Scientology will either do what it is supposed to do, or life will end its existance. It will be interesting to see what happens to it, given time.
Back to you.
Sorry to hear of your medical issues. I, too, had many of them along the lines of low enrgy and exhaustion. Found out it was part mercury poisening and part parasites of the liver. Getting back to normal now. I hope you have achieved your goals of restoring your health as that is your greatest wealth and asset, bar none.
I always wanted to see you do well, Kathy. I have found that wishing ill of others is a sure path to one's own hell. Nomatter what, I have found great strength in not allowing hate to consume one. Your story has a wonderful tang of equanimity, laced with intermittent flurries of passion in what seems many directions at once. Yes, I remember.
And I sense that you seek to live without undue malice or ill intent. I always thought of you as such a quality person and am not surprised to see these qualities on display all these years later.
Your new home sounds like a very nice place for you. I have always found a garden and a woman always go together. Kind of like a bird in the air - it just looks right. I am sure you are enjoying that activity like no other. And your husband seems like a good man - which you deserve.
I dont know what your spiritual path is these days, but I do hope you find it. I have lived with a spiritual path and without one. I find that having one is so much more fulfilling. It tends to give one a sense of being swept up in an adventure, which has no goal other than what you make of it - and when you stop being able to make the goal and allow someone else to do it, it is no longer a spiritual path. It becomes a path to slavery of the mind and body. Not a fun place to be, as we know.
Well, Kathy, the hot rodder who made a three cylinder Justy outpace Danica Patrick's Formula One, I will end here since the markets are on fire and I should be paying attention to my business.
I wish you the best, and thank you again for sharing your life here, and a little bit of it with me in the past.
You're okay.
