Filtered from the Bureau - text

I have a proposal I want to make.

To put it diplomatically, I do not think the Bureau-run support groups are helpful. Meeting others dealing with new memories of past lives is good, but the way the Bureau runs their meetings has no other benefit.

I am a therapist; this is an area I’m well trained for.

But I would like to know if this worth pursuing.

How many would be interested if we started our own support group, completely separate from the Bureau?

And they won't be aware there IS an alternative unless someone tells them. I probably shouldn't be the only person, of course, but that's something I can do.

Thank you for offering to do this. I definitely still have reservations about... all of this, sometimes. So somewhere the Bureau isn't listening will be good for me, too.

You're right to recognize that that is not a task to take on alone. The more people who volunteer to help, the easier it will be for all of us.

I do hope that creating our own space to process what we are going through will help everyone who participates.

Mm, right. And it's good that we have someone that knows what he's doing leading the operation. I'd probably just run it like a big mixer because I don't know any better. So I'm looking forward to something I can get more use out of.

Oh, before I forget - let me know if you want to pool money for refreshments, I'll pitch in for that. If I have to drink dollar-store powdered lemonade again I'm going to take the whole bucket and dump it in the Hudson. I know it's not a HELPFUL complaint, but it's been stuck in my head for a while.

Not powdered lemonade - noted.
