Dear Daenarys T,\r
I really appreciate your post here. You nailed the sentiments that we who remained were programmed to have--treating you and others as though they were dead; We were told to “pick up and move on,” just as you said. We closed our hearts. You summed up expertly the dynamic that drives this cult, and we obediently followed the leader. What a sad commentary.\r
But not all have continued the downward spiral. Many eventually began to realize the deception and brainwashing that we were being exposed to. As Lakeviewers have become bold enough to think for themselves, there continues to be a trickling out of remaining members. It doesn’t excuse our treatment of you and those who left before us, but now that we are out we are free to extend love to one another and healing. May our mutual goal be to move on and hopefully even forgive those who remain in that awful darkness!\r
Each one of us who is bold enough to leave opens the door a little wider for the next one, and the next…\r
I do pray for your healing and for the healing of all who follow us out.
