ello, my name is Richard S. Duarte, Jr., and here is a little bit about myself:

      In the summer of 1990, my wife of nearly 12 years decided to have an affair with my business partner - I was devastated and confused for nearly 2 weeks! I couldn't make any sense of it! And the consoling of friends and family were of no help!

      Then one night, while watching TV with my 2 sons, ages 10 and 4 1/2, I saw, for the very first time, a commercial for the book Dianetics: The Modern Science of Mental Health. To this day, I cannot recall exactly the advertisement that really "hit home" but I can tell you what it communicated to me! It communicated this: "Page 322! Find out why your wife had an affair with your business partner, ran off with him and left you with the 2 boys!" And, at that moment, I thought "I have got to get that book!"

      And I did!

      And I had it read in less that 4 days!

      It was the most amazing book I had ever read! Forty years of confusion, of not understanding why people do or say the things they do were cleared-up! It really make sense! And, one of the biggest relief's I got from just reading this book was that 20-plus years of headaches just vanished! I mean, I no longer had to take 5000 mg of aspirin or Tylenol a day! And to this day 8 full years later, I have not had a single headache! Incredible!!!

      Now, I must tell you that my wife and I did not get back together but we did managed to repair our relationship with the courses and services that the Church of Scientology offered and here it is 6, 8 years later and we are the best of friends.

      As of this day, I've been happily married to my new wife for nearly 5 years! She is everything I ever wanted in a relationship! She is beautiful, charming, witty and, above all, she loves to communicate! And, she has the same realities and love of life that I do! And, to tell you the truth, this is the happiest I've ever been in my entire life!

      Ever since my wife and I got together, our lives have improved dramatically! We have a wonderful son, now at the age of 3 1/2! We live in a beautiful home just outside Los Angeles! We either own or managed 5 different businesses and our income has soared to a level that we once thought was only possible in our dreams! We have plenty of time for family and friends, in spite of what may appear to be a very busy schedule with our business! Plus, I have plenty of time to "putter around" in our garden!

      Now I must say that all this (and much, much more) would not have been possible had it not been for the educational courses and the wonderful, life-changing-for-the-better services that the Church of Scientology provided for my wife and I! And, I can tell you as fact that life without the vital knowledge that Scientology provides, I would be absolutely miserable! To say the least, I highly recommend that you go - right now - to the nearest Church and discover for yourself the way to find True and Everlasting Happiness in Life!!!
