Her brother, Thomas, a creature of habit, had just declared his intention to join the Church of Scientology. She felt a kind of giddy excitement, an energy that made her want to leap and skip. She could hardly contain herself. She started to pace the room. "Wow, Thomas, that's something else! Tell me everything," she said. She was ready to explore the unknown, the unconventional, the fascinating world that her brother was now entering. Her mind buzzed with questions and a desire to understand this new direction.
