A Strange Feeling as of Late...

Hoping everyone is ok As for the minor bickering, here, have a lolcat:




Last night was amusing if somewhat annoying, just as it turned midnight making it my birthday ... the power in the whole street went out for several hours. *shakes fist* So that was a fun night of trying to sleep with no music, silly tinnitus

It actually turned out to be very fortuitous that me and my other half had booked this week off months ago as we wouldn't have been able to get into work in the latter part due to the snow

Explain to me how I am not open to learning new things? OR do you mean I'm not open to ACCEPTING new things just because someone says so? These are questions WITHOUT sarcasm, I am curious to your answer.

Well, isn't part of education the acceptance of what you are being taught? If not, then you aren't really learning, you are hearing and seeing stuff that you don't agree with. Not the same thing.

I understand that it makes a very real impression on people. It may even reveal a lot to them... a lot of important things... but what I mean about not wanting to do it and then perhaps wanting to do it again and again if I DID do it is that even if I see something really out of this world...let's say I envision and feel as though I am communicating with other species I have never seen (besides that one time long ago). Once the few minutes are over, it's not like I can get in a car and drive over to their house and give them a handshake or hug as a real friend in my life.

If there is intelligent life out there around us, watching us, who are related to us somehow... if they are not at war with us then I want to know more, I want to be a part of more than just a fleeting chemical trip. Even if it did open some real doorway, if that is the only doorway... I think it would leave me feeling empty.

Are you suggesting this is the appropriate way to get some kind of real answers for someone who is certain that they have been approached by a real, tangible entity and to my knowledge I have never been near '___'.

Ah, I see what you're saying now. You could very well be right in the assumption of the empty/sadness. I cannot say with any real knowledge. I think if you believe that's how you will react afterwards then it wouldn't be a productive thing for you to do.

Am I suggesting this is appropriate? Well, even T&C aside, I would still say no. Reason being, whether you have been approached by a tangible entity or not ... Grr how do I put this. Ok, this is something that I firmly believe is an extremely personal experience. No matter who has seen/heard/experienced what. I don't care if millions have done it and come back with the answers to life and the great infinite. I would never suggest to another this is the way to go. That has to come from the person seeking/doing.
I have never tried '___'. Would I? ... Honestly, yes. But that's me and my life I'm potentially harming. There are always consequences for our actions to put it simply.

Only you know what is right for you. But if I can be of any assistance otherwise, you know I'm here.

I don't recall you sharing the experience you have had with the "entity" previously. If you wouldn't mind, I would like to hear about it. If you don't feel comfortable here then a u2u would be fine with me as well. But please don't feel as though you have to.

Love you all to pieces!

I can agree or see the point of some, tough to accept all. Do you accept EVERYTHING someone tells you? (once again NOT SARCASTIC)

BTW Happy Chanukah to all who celebrate it!!

amc - i sent you another u2u, i hope i didn't accidently send them to someone else.
Please tell me you got them.

Tragic,
I received two. Was there more?

amc - yes, three in all. the third was actually a secondary to the actual second .. lol if that makes sense.

well, i should say that there was the one that you replied to yesterday afternoon.

then there were two more from last night. so, it was technically the third you replied to today.

hmm ok I will just resend the middle one to make sure you got it. If you already have it, just ignore the resend then.

Looking forward to better relations.

reply to post by Tragic


I got them all, and thank you.

I was five, it was real late at night and everyone was alseep. I woke up, eyes wide open, felt like I wasn't going to be able to close them or go back to sleep at all. I was scared. I got up to go to my parents bedroom which I hardly ever did and on the way there I went through the kitchen and he was sitting on the kitchen counter. He looked pretty old... he "seemed" pretty old as well, like his mannerisms were of someone who had been around the block a few times. When i was coming into the kitchen and my eyes caught him sitting there, he looked away... as though he was watching me walk in but as soon as I saw him he very casually looked away as if he was just innocently sitting there on the counter in the dead of night. He had on a black suit and a black wide brimmed hat. His skin was very pale...white. It's hard for me to describe his jaw and face but to try, it was smallish and I could tell he was not human... and years later I would try to convince myself that maybe it was a spirit of a human or something but there's just no denying it, not with all the other things I've seen as well over the course of my life. It can't be a coincidence.
He was kinda hunched over, he *might* have been 4 ft tall if he had been standing. his head was still under the cabinets above where he was sitting. He was gangly if that is the word I'm thinking, not ungraceful... his movements were fluid, his body language was not awkward... he was just pretty wirey. I have tried drawing a picture of him and although i got some things right... many things I feel are not right... but it was so long ago. to not be able to remember correctly in order to turn it into a correct image is driving me crazy. i was thinking about trying again but some things I just don't know how to put it on the picture. It's just so hard. it's much easier directly looking at the image you are trying to draw, not having it be a 30 year old memory.

Anyway...as he turned his head toward my parents doors, with his dark eyes moving away from sight and being partially hidden by the brim of his hat, he motioned with his hand towards the door... as if to say "go ahead"
I almost stepped forward but then had the feeling he might grab me as i walked in front him so i just stood there..looking at him... and I almost uttered the word "mommy' but at the very moment I was about to try and speak the whole room flashed with light and all I could see were his huge irises... huge glowing greyish greenish bluish irises... about the size of half dollars it seemed... as if contracted by the light. upon first looking at him all i saw was dark eyes but when I saw the flash, all i remember seeing was those huge irises as if for an instant he had looked into my very being. It's hard to describe.
After this happened, i have no idea why i did this or what i was thinking at the time... it seems less easy to remember than the rest of it but after this, I think I just walked back to bed and went back to sleep. Seems odd but that's what i remember. maybe I was just scared but looking back it doesn't seem like the normal thing to do.
I have tried to remember if anything else happened in that house... aside from strange dreams and weird illnesses (because there have been other things that i thought might be connected but can't be sure it was something he did)... the only thing that seems familiar to me... like it felt like him, his character I guess or whatever word to describe it, his presence if you will... but this is a very vague memory I'm about to mention. I was alseep. It seems I woke up for a second and went right back to sleep but I can't be certain it's related. perhaps it's just a feeling but I felt a hand move across my forehead and it seems I heard a low soft growl or grumble and i went right back to sleep. I can't be sure if that is related or if it was a dream.

When i was 19 my and three friends were riding in my truck just after dusk and we saw a portal in the sky. out of the corner of my eye i saw a light. It was even further back then beside me but it was bright enough that it definitely caught my eye. It was as if it was shining right at us. i said "what the # is that?" It was moving toward us, gradually moving down and in towards us and it was getting brighter, much brighter. From the bottom right of this light, am orange glowing square... like a box with fire inside started opening up from the star. It got pretty big for the distance it was, but it was just moving our of this light... like protracting out from it. One of my friends in the backseat was hollering at me telling me to stop, but i hadn't known him long. I looked at my best friend sitting beside me and she looked scared and said "don't stop" while shaking her head, so i hit the gas and when i took off faster trying to get away from it as it was advancing towards us growing bigger, it started getting smaller again... as if it had changed it's mind. It went all the way back into the star and then the star shot off into the sky on a long arch of light in a split second... it just gone.

when I was 22 I saw what appeared to be two holograms coming up out of the ground and they seemed to be very highly charged with electricity. they were clad from head to toe in a metal mesh looking like material.

i will tell that whole story but i am tired of typing for now. There are other strange things as well but those are the three strangest, most clear, obviously out of place things.

Why everyone seems to have had "cool" experiences with entities but I haven't? It makes me feel lonely =(...
The closest to one was... ok, there's not even a closest one. Even my friend had one, and other of my friends haves them every time... but I? anything. Never.
Maybe I failed at paranormal too =(...

Als, why when I come here all the fun was already over?

*Cags goes into her dark corner and cries*

P.S: HAPPY BDAY PHOENIX!!!

What a seemingly unusual thing for a young woman to say.

Hell, it took me 30 years to connect the dots. I think that is probably the most unusual part of it to me now, trying to figure out why it took me 30 years to see that these things might possibly be connected... these things that have been eating at me all this time, trying to figure out what they are- not knowing.
when these things are happening, it does not seem "cool"... it's frightening not knowing what the hell is going on. It wasn't until the thought crossed my mind that these were done by the same entity or small group of entities and there might be a reason connecting all the pieces of the puzzle together. Until that thought crossed my mind, it was just random confusing pieces strewn about eating away at me.
