Dear All,
I just got back from visiting my brother who informed me of this web site. I don't understand the hostility some of you still harbor. I was at the seed from February 75 to February 76. I don't think about it all that much. I finished high school, went on to college and now operate my own practice as a certified public accountant. It was a little different for me as I had to live with foster parents during my year there, as my parents were living in Texas at that time. I sometimes wonder what ever happened to some of the people I got to know during that time of my life. As for as today, like I said, I do not think about it very much at all. My wife knows about it as I do not try to hide the fact I was there. I try living my life today in a loving and caring way as I have a deep faith in God. I don't necessarily believe that because of the seed, I am where I am today but who knows? I was just a kid at the time. I can say I was never mistreated while I was there. I remember Robert, Cliff, and John. I never had a problem with any of them and hope they are all doing well.

Welcome. Can you tell us a story about something you remember when you were there?

Hi Greg,
No, I really don't remember very much to be honest with you. It all seems a blur now. Just living in different foster homes. Went to a couple of high schools there. North Miami Senior High was one of them. I lived with a guy named Terry and his family for a while but I don't even remember his last name. I have never been back to that area of the country. Not because of anything bad, just never had any reason to go back there. When I left I think I just put the whole experience behind me and moved on with my life. I moved back to Louisiana as my father had a farm here and I have never left Louisiana.
Kind Regards,
Chuck

What about before you went in? What do you remember about that?
Were you a drug addict? Were you in trouble. What lead your parents to putting you in the seed?
welcome again.

Dear Anonymous,
Yes I was doing drugs at the time. No I would say I was not an addict. I would also say I was not in trouble. And it is a long story of why my parents put me in the seed.
It started when my parents divorced when I was fifteen. My mother moved to a different town and I stayed with my Dad. He traveled a lot and left me and my younger brother to fend for ourselves while he was out of town. We were not bad kids and I never got in touble with law enforcement. I would never have stole, robbed or would have done anything criminal. Me and my brother had different sets of friends and I think he was in a little deeper than I was. He overdosed on valume one time and that is when my Dad who had heard of the Seed, flew him out to Ft. Lauderdale and that is how he got there. Of course he told them I needed to be there also and that is how I got there.
I think things happen for a reason. I do not regret anything. I think it did give me some direction I needed at that time in my life, although I do not dwell on it and to this day have a very good relationship with both of my parents. We all make mistakes in life but what really matters is how we treat each other and if we can learn from each other as well. I learned some truths at the seed but it still goes deeper than that. If I can teach someone else truths that I have learned in life, then that is a good thing. If someone else can teach me something in return, then that is also good. Like I said before, I have a very deep spritual relationship with God. I know now I am a Spirit and try and pattern my life the way Jesus lived his.
Kind Regards,
Chuck
