Simplistic solutions: Most of the contactees had something in common: before their encounter they were powerless, perhaps slightly alienated people, who had the feeling that they were being swept along by forces beyond their control. In the 1950's, at the height of the cold war, with the U.S.A. and the Soviet Union engaged in a frightening arms race, . . . . ........ . . . (new paragraph). The greatest mystery of the contactees is the nature of the mental process that produced their reports. Was it simply delusion, self-deception, and misinterpretation? Or is there some other mechanism that can produce images of fantastic and utopian worlds in human minds? If so, it has implications far beyond the historical curiosity of the contactees themselves.

Sorry about that; to start my (possible) encounter thread like this.
However, I must point out something here. Today I feel powerless, perhaps slightly alienated, and feel like I am being swept along by forces beyond my control. I was born in 1966, witnessed countries like the Soviet Union change names, the Berlin Wall come down, etc., and sometimes wonder if the sole intention of the "mental process" is to produce the symptoms afore mentioned.

JC: Einstein was alienated too. He didn't have many friends when he was a child and his math teacher told him he would never amount to anything. Just thought I'd throw that in there. ~hugz~ I believe the Berlin wall went down in 1985... the year I was born... right?

My experiences throughout my lifetime are more "paranormal" than anything else. With the access of the internet, many books, and having and talking with my own children, I would even say that I am pretty much experiencing a "normal" life. What makes me a bit different is I used to have a "photographic" memory and I continue to remember odd things. Is the "odd" my entertainment? Do I find daily life boring, mundane, without some sort of perceived excitement? Am I "odd" and thus the "law of attraction" is in play here? I think too much :l . I want reason and order to rule. I want to sleep all day and all night, but yet I'll do whatever I can initially to not close my eyes. I'd like to just stare out the kitchen window and daydream about dancing at a friends wedding. Yeah, I can do that for a few moments... Upon reading other's experiences here, I see the point in doing this . Afraid I can't. Not because I'm afraid to tell, or how, but if it isn't obvious by now, it is coming out very very s l o w. Fighting to not delete this thread ugh and know that YOU somehow undrstand ( and sudde nly I don't care if I misspell this or that) Who am I. Facts I've been told: I was born a month early, at midnight, 6 lbs, 1966, and my mom doesn't remember giving birth exactly (laughing gas, I guess). Mom jokes that because it was midnight she got to pick the date that went on paper, and was thrilled to be able to put it on her parent's wedding anniversary (choosing the "next" day as anyone should). One of many mom "jokes" that I think I hear behind a lot of childhood overheard conversations. Later on the things I thought were jokes are truths, and some truths portrayed as jokes are actually truths, and wait a minute, am I confusing, or what. Well, this did start in childhood. My mom supposedly had 2 miscarriages between my brother and I. He is 20 mo. older. She wasn't supposed to get pregnant again and I heard the part of the story that sounded like I was a mistake. She didn't tell anyone about her "bump" except my dad because she was so afraid she'd lose me in another miscarriage, and boy, were her friends surprised! In fact, my mom (was) is so in control that when she knew I was coming early it took forever to convince my dad to quit talking to the neighbor over the fence. That fear she had about miscarrying me, well, did she lie? One day, she decided to lay down on her bed for a sec while her 2 kids were taking a nap. she wasn't going to sleep though; too much to do. After laying down, the phone rang so she had to get right up. She answered it and heard the line "open", but no one answered her "hello". She tried again and was about to hang up when she heard a noise in the background that made her stop. If she listened carefully it sounded like someone was coming to the phone. It sounded just like when she called her grandpa and he came across the wood floor with his cane after her grandma answered the phone. Yup. Grandpa came on the line and said "______, you quit worrying about that baby. she's going to be just fine". Click, he hung up. I think my mom took that "spirit" of my great-grandpa literally. She knows I'm always going to be just fine .

"Einstein was alienated too. He didn't have many friends when he was a child and his math teacher told him he would never amount to anything. Just thought I'd throw that in there." ~hugz~ Hey I'm thankful and I'll take what you throw in, girl! ~hug back~ Umm. I had tons of friends in childhood . My PARENTS thought I wouldn't amount because they didn't know what ADHD/ADD was, but my, wasn't I cute?? Oh, and the art teacher asked if I could take private lessons and teachers were helping me stay on task.... Did Einstein die feeling alienated? If you don't answer I can look that up

You seem to be a lot like me JC... except I didn't get a lot of friends until high school/college. With me though, it's music rather than visual art. I couldn't draw a decent stick figure if someone held a gun to my head lol... ~hugs~ I believe everything you are posting JC. I know it is hard to share these things with others, but believe me, we all understand here. I believe Auntym posted when I first joined the other forum where I met everyone at: "LOL... methinks you have found a home here." And indeed I have. I hope you feel that way here as well honey. You are not alone, and don't ever forget that. I hope this is comforting and reassuring to you, for that is what I intend to convey- even though these words are being typed by a self-admitted crazy person. ;D ~hugs~ As far as Einstein feeling alienated until his death, I don't know. I do know that his wife left him because of how forgetful he became... forgetting to tie his shoes and comb his hair and such things finally drove her away from him... at least that's what I heard I could have been misinformed. I find that I have often been misinformed of a great many things lately... He was a very eccentric man... very much like a young man whom I attended high school with. The last I heard, that young man I knew became a Harvard graduate. ~shrug~

One thing I have looked up (answers self. chuckle. hee hee) is "spirits" predicting things like child birth. Common. Mothers praying for babies when they can't have any? Very common to get pregnant soon after being told "you'll have a baby". Virgins having babies? Common. Just thought I'd throw that in there. . But yeah, you'll find that, too. Lorelei, you are a dear heart. And I'm wondering where you got that name, and why, and that's just another part of my "weirdness". Sigh. I'll explain, but then prolly take a break . Childhood. well, actually preteen, like 12. Have had a best friend named Lorelei since kindergarten 'cept she goes by Lori. "Lorelei Lee __________". And man, I love her, always have, but she's turning into a pot stirrer, can't trust her, and she doesn't realize i'm going thru something. Plus other people (kids) are complaining about her big mouth to me. a lot. But her dad has money, she's always havin' parties or something, and they're smiling at her face and I just don't have time for this @*$^! I end up actually having our first locker together in seventh grade, because no one else will. Sigh. The only time I see her is at the locker occas. She tells me about another party she's having. Don't think i went to that one. She lives over the hill from me, so one evening I just head over to her house on foot; pretty sure it was a week nite. A bunch of our friends are there, and kids are welcoming me, and I barely recall walking into her front yard, saying hi to Lori, and being swept off my feet in a huge, squishy hug. I was irritated but seeing that it was Lori's big bear of a dad, I gave in to happiness and laughter. My ADHD perception sees Lori scowling (maybe because my attention was drawn from her;maybe because it was her dad acting that way about me)and _______(everyone's nickname for him) is asking me "where you been?" I remember talking to him briefly, telling Lori good-bye soon after, and going home. I remember that her front yard was dark and it always took me a sec to see who was yelling "Hi". I remember that I was glad I went by. The next day another childhood friend called me. It was Patrick. Everyone even remembers who told who. He told me that after all the kids went home last night, ________ (Lori's dad) turned on his Cadillac in the garage with the garage door closed and killed himself. No Way! And it was a mess. I could testify his state of mind shortly before, and he had tools sitting on his lap, so please, lets not tell the life ins. people he killed himself... no tears today. I heard Lori asked about me before our 10 yr. high school reunion. I approached her at the reunion, she looked me in the face and said she didn't want me to think she wanted to actually talk to me, and turned around. Her husband looked kind of puzzled. What could I do? yeah, I went and talked to someone else.

"I believe the Berlin wall went down in 1985... the year I was born... right?" Don't think so. . At the time I was working for a dr. and he brought home a piece of the wall. Had to have been after 1987.

Wow JC. That's a heavy story...
I chose the name based on a poem we were assigned to read and memorize in German class back in high school. Look at my signature. That's a quotation from that poem. "Waldgesprach" it's called.
While I was working as a cashier on the local military base, a soldier kept coming in and hitting on me. Finally, after two months of us flirting back and forth, he gave me his phone number. I texted him. We had dinner. He told me he was in a band. I asked if they needed a keyboard player.
The next thing I know, I'm sitting in a rustic Alaskan saloon with a tall handsome black man in a suit who claimed to be the band manager who kept telling me how shocked he was that I wasn't married, across the table from me was a 38 year old long-haired blonde man who told me his name was "Hollywood" and another 42 year old man with blonde hair who called himself "Big Dog." The young soldier who had taken me out to dinner told me his name was "Nitro."
"Big Dog" looked over at me and asked me what my name was.
I smirked at him, took a drink of my beer and said, "Just call me Lorelei."
Hollywood smiled and said, "I like it. I like it."

ha ha ha, hee hee I was always "Ashley" until about 6 yrs. ago. (smirk) . I ran around with a girl whose real name was Lora and she always gave it. So together we were "Laura Ashley" and could show you some tasteful household items! (doesn't take much to keep me entertained )

" I ran around with a girl " felt I needed to clarify. Lora is older than me . I hate generalizations but do label somewhat personality-wise. My kids think it's terrible when I call my prized toy poodle "the dog". I have acquaintances that are a 'girl, lady, woman, chic, guy, man,dude, gentleman, kiddo, etc. no matter their age. My boss is a 'mam.

Sleepwalking. Missing time? I don't remember this at all. My parents discovered me missing from my bed during the night. They went looking about the house. The house I live in now. Prolly took a bit after I wasn't in the usual places and trying not to disturb their other 2 children. Doors of the house are all locked. My understanding is they weren't terribly upset but baffled and we had a fresh coating of snow over everything. My dad decided to go outside and he ended up looking inside his car that was sitting in the driveway. I was in the backseat, laying down sleeping. Pjs, barefoot, no blanket, but comfortably asleep. The car was locked, then and prolly right after he got out of it. Is this where the ominous music starts playing? doo doo doo doo. Nah. My timing is off. The music came in when they first started looking . See Jo? I laugh about it too. Even in small company. Have to. Some people laugh and crack jokes because that's what works for them.. Anyhow, there were no footprints in the snow. Surely there was snow on the car windows also. I don't remember what made my dad think of the car. I do know that I would try to find closed in places as a sleep-walking child. I was found, and remember, being in my closet with blankets, pillows, stuffed animals and the closet door shut but a small crack. I also liked underneath beds unless it made me sneeze.

My entire life has been to do with the paranormal..it comes with being psychic and I don't know if that came from the encounter I had as a child or the psychic bent came first. I do know..that as a 16 year old girl out with her friend horseback riding..I wasn't thinking much beyond enjoyment of the day..right before we lost 3 hours into hell. I have a lot of trouble with contactee stories of good aliens because of those 3 hours. The paranormal..is just a dimension away..heaven is amazing..and some people see ghosts because their frequency vibrates closer to the paranormal. It's a gift...to truly see the world around us..not just the one we chose to live in for a time. I'd say JC is a seeker...or she wouldn't be here

Had there been snow on the ground before you went to sleep? All the doors in the house were locked from the inside... and you were outside? Weird... Hmmmmm... Steve might be interested in this. He's asked me if that sort of thing has ever happened to me (I too am a sleepwalker... have been since I was able to walk...) and I don't recall anything that strange myself. I find it interesting too... I can also tell you that "weirdness" appears in my life frequently too. Like Jo, I have psychic abilities but I sense mine are not as pronounced as hers. I read tarot cards, have dreams of the future (days, hours, weeks or even years in advance) and I have been known to read minds from time to time, particularly when I am among people I have known for a long time. I used to channel spirits and do medium work back in high school but I scared myself one time too many so I don't dabble in that stuff anymore. I also studied Wicca back in high school... mostly because my sister dabbled in it... I cast a couple of spells and scary stuff happened (each spell backfired HORRIBLY and did NOT yield the results I had anticipated...) so I decided not to do that anymore. I've got one heckofa karma backlash heading my way I'm sure because of one of those spells... ~sigh~

Hi Lorelei . Fresh coating of snow over everything is my way of saying we already had snow, the driveway had been shoveled, and it needed to be shoveled again. The last 2 yrs. snows have brought back happy snow memories from childhood. It seems colder, though . I just remember a lot of snow on the ground as a kid....not so much the past 30 yrs. and I'm not the only one in the area thinking this way... I'm so glad Jo shares with us, and I'm thinking, she's sharing more and more? . and Lois, with her abilities. !! (by the way, I have a student, new last year, with Lois' pen name, except it's a he.....another "sign" or reason to finally follow skywalker to here. Rolls eyes.) in your mentioned category, I'm a late-bloomer. In the past 8 yrs. (just since my divorce) I have been checking out weird stuff that has nothing to do with my "abilities"; just for curiosity. I bought some tarot cards, learned how to "read" them and had them around for a few months for their novelty. One night or early, early morning I had all the lights on in my bedroom (other house) and was sitting on my still made bed criss-cross applesauce and starting to play with the cards. My kids were all asleep and I thought I might be up for awhile. Shortly after getting comfortable myself, I noticed a small "impression", or indentation happen on my lumpy bedspread at the end of the bed. This impression then "moved" (more like hopped) a few inches closer to me. Then "hopped" again closer. The best I can explain was like a pet bunny trying to stealthily hop onto my bed and come be petted. I didn't feel a presence, wasn't terrified, and I acted like I didn't see a thing, but got up quickly, put the cards in a drawer and left the room. I did wish I had alcohol in the house . Eventually I turned off all the lights and went to bed in that room. The cards went in the trash the next day. For all I know it was a little person, and not an animal . I have one exp. with a ouji board. Another childhood friend introduced me to this around the age of eight. It was just her and I checking it out. I had never heard of it or knew what to expect. She said we could ask it questions like "does so and so like me?" (giggle) and I saw a place where the word yes was written on the board, the word no, and the alphabet and some numbers, I think. Within a few minutes the board started spelling something and we hadn't asked a question. Both of our hands were on the thing and I didn't think WE were moving it; I was so astounded! It spelled out "Hi ______ (my name)". Well, then the board went flyin' because of my reaction and I went home pretty quickly after that. Bizarre.

Thanks, Jo! It has taken me many years to have the perspective of abilities being a "gift". I hope I'm a "seeker" . I thought I was mainly a "watcher". I don't know which came first either, but assume I was "born this way". Earliest memories I felt like I was different, and "something" was wrong. This feeling may have been because I had visions/dreams of tragedies and destruction very young, or I sensed people around me having stronger negative reactions to daily living than stronger positive. I used to think that the "negative" came from my legalistic religious upbringing, but know now that my legalistic bent was self-imposed. Kids that read well early SHOULD NOT be reading a bible, IMO. One of my daughters also tends to feel people's negative self-talk. This is a recent discovery. I already knew she likes to sleep a lot (like her mom) but stay awake at night, and that people get on her nerves. This is the alienation part . We love people for sure, but can come across as "moody" due to our decisions to alienate ourselves out of seemingly nowhere. We both prefer individual, small groups for outings. A crowd can feel "overbearing" so some preparation for that is best.

I'm risking my reputation now by sharing some boring details . I just chatted with my mother briefly. I made a pot of coffee at 7:00 a.m. and was going to take her up a cup if I didn't hear her getting up soon. She's up and dressed and sipping coffee. With utter amazement she states that 2 nights this week she has slept through the night wonderfully. Last night and another night. (I picked them up from the airport on Monday evening after a week + in the West). On questioning, she admits she hasn't done this (slept well) for 30 years! She also dreamed and remembers. I have a headache, I'm stiff as if I excercised too much yesterday, both ears are lightly ringing, but I am so happy for my mom and let's forget about me! She has no idea that I am sharing my (our) life on the web.

For years and years (at least 30) I've used my deck of tarot daily to 'listen'. Sometimes, especially for myself, I am not still enough to catch messages. So I use my deck (well I've worn out a few) and what I do is say a prayer for guidance..and always I ask for God's permission and then I lay them out. Always there is something I've missed during the day..and sometimes they are just 'loving' cards reminding me that I am loved and guided...this always happens when I need it. The other day and evening they kept showing money given..and I wasn't expecting any. Well a surprise check in the mail showed me I didn't know as much as I thought I did. The cards are a way of expression. I did readings for years for others..until they just became too emotionally draining..and sometimes just too sad to bear as I changed emotionally. It's a window into the lives of others..and in those windows are good...and hope and promise but there are also the trials and griefs that must accompany our lives. We don't learn a lot from having nothing but good stuff..unfortunately. You're right JC I do share more now..and I'd have to say that a lot of that is Lorelei and Sky encouraging it. The atmosphere is very different on our forum here. It's positive for the most part..and good people.
I know it can be 'scary' at first but when you 'ask' to be let into this other world..try to accept that you will be protected if you ask for it. Negative won't happen unless you open that door.

Jo: ;D ~hugz and smoochiez~ ;D ;D ;D ;D I'm open about everything... even in real life. I get upset though when I catch my outwardness (spell check says that isn't a word but I like it so it stays ) making other people embarrassed which they express with their body language. I have always had trouble figuring out what is acceptable to share and what is not. Maybe this is because I'm a telepath and I automatically know things about other people that they don't know I know. Sometimes I even instinctively know things that I don't even know I know that will manifest themselves in a "feeling" rather than a logical thought or "knowing"... ~shrug~ I weird people out. This is normal for me. I have not always been this way though...

"I weird people out. This is normal for me. I have not always been this way though.." Well,...How long have you been blue? Lol. I'm enjoying your company . You don't/wouldn't embarrass me at all! "Have you been to facebook lately? Almost everyone does that nowadays... myself included." Well,.....not with this part of my life story (hug). I like the way the word resonance fits some of these "situations" as opposed to always saying "coincidence". I believe it has long been resolved, but my mom admitted some...well, she cried a couple of times, when we went over just a few questions I asked about my childhood. So here I am sharing the creepiness factor and she sleeps better.... Prolly has nothing to do with me. Lol.

Jo, I have a friend who uses the tarot much like you . I am a "student" of Carl Jung. I believe in the "Collective Conscience", the higher self; things like that. And when Steve is conversing with Han, for example, it could be something else. I believe much like Pauline does about bloodlines. (she expresses this well in her experience thread). My concern with the bloodlines is the concern with old stereotypes. If the "thing" hopping on my bed, or the small dark shadow near the floor I see could be "familiars". I didn't conjure them up. lol. Yes, wiccan, pagan, etc. is more acceptable these days, but would I have been burned at the stake? Am I cursed? Even if I choose to "use my abilities" for good? Is this what our world is coming back to? Ugh. We've always been racist. A lot of people are aware of the power of words and even the power of thought. For me to change my thinking to my "quirks" are alien/human/technology related, instead of a "spiritual interface", well, this is going to take some time.

I've got one heckofa karma backlash heading my way I'm sure because of one of those spells... ~sigh~ " And this from a novice. . Just imagine what you could do if you were trained. Sigh. I cast a spell using my Bible. I'm not going to go into detail because I don't believe a person should just dabble in these things. I'm here to share my experiences and some of my experiences will be construed as deeply religious. And that's fine. Casting a spell is deeply personal, as you know, by your mention of the karma effect. I can't just get on here and explain to someone that they have to just ask for protection before they do ANYTHING.... Anyway, a very strong, muscular (10 yrs. older) man started hanging out with a group that I hung with. He was funny, attractive, and started "feigning" a friendship with me, asking questions like "are you still going out with _______", things like that. Then he moved in with a neighbor of mine (a few blocks away) and my daily walk-abouts began to feel different. Hmmmm. On top of that, rumor was he had spent 8 yrs. in prison when he was younger. And as you know, I have my paranoid moments, so, I cast a "spell" on my own house. Protection, of course . In time, his attention calmed down, life went on, I forgot about the whole thing. A couple of years later I was moving a tv into my home and he drove by towards his home. He stopped and offered to help. Wow, how nice . He carried the tv through my front room, dining area, and into my family room in the back. We were casually chatting and "catching up" as he did. I thought the conversation was going well, he put down the tv, looked about, and then announced "I gotta go". He practically ran to my front door. Perplexed, but being polite, I followed him outside to thank him for his help. As soon as he was in my front yard, he turned around, he had a big smile, and we talked for another hour! When I put the "spell" on my house I didn't mention this guy by name. But it was in my "intent". 'Course we never had any intruders (?) after that anyway, even if I left the garage door open all night.....

When I was four.....
This is where I truly start to wonder what is really going on.
When I was four we moved from a small town to the big city. I remember this very well. It was around this time of year, beautiful day, and I was pretty happy to go along. When it was time to go back to our old house to go to bed, I was accidentally left at the new house. You know, miscommunication between parents of who has which kid in separate vehicles. I knew they'd come back for me so I crawled behind a mattress that was leaning against a wall in an upstairs bedroom and went to sleep. Didn't seem long, and someone pulled the mattress off the wall and smiled at me. I thought it was my dad's brother. My Uncle __________ had come to get me! Thats the last thing I remember.
Over time, I began to hear other people talk about this event differently. I wouldn't listen; my perception was correct.
1. My Uncle __________ did not help with the move, and was not the one who "found me".
2. My older sister remembers what I was like after the "event". I wouldn't talk to anyone and was also withdrawn in other ways. Something was "wrong".
3. Even though they immediately drove back to get me, my parents called a neighbor that they had planned to live by, and I was "missing". This neighbors son found me standing in the front yard of the new house though, before my parents got back there.
I have several memories from early childhood that appear accurate. Why did my mind change this one? Was it someone or something else that pulled the mattress away from the wall? Was I taken and returned?
In another thread here I talked about a being at the side of my bed that changed appearance. That happened right around the time that I started asking these questions.
when weird events seem to happen after a specific question, I can't help wonder if I'm getting my answer.

I like your questions JC..I like anyone who questions and keeps right on questioning..we should explore all sorts of spiritual leanings. In the long run I know we're going to find that there is not one truth (other than the existence of a divine source) but many many truths. I know that we are not all meant to follow the same path but to explore all of the wonders out there and choose what feels right for ourselves. We were given individuality for a reason and I love the ones here who use it. I don't think the 'grey's' possess individuality..I think they are either clones or someone's home grown pets..or I should say..the ones I ran into seemed identical in every way. I named them at one time (pretty unflattering names)..I refer to them as thugs or stooges because they become less threatening in my mind that way...it helps me deal with things to minimize them. Anyway...seekers are exactly why this forum exists..a good thing

JC: that is definitely a scary story... taking the form of your uncle... or at least making you believe he was your uncle in your mind...

I agree, I believe they can make one see anything they want them to. JC . are you saying if abducted, they returned you to your new home.. That is very strange indeed. I believe a alien knows all that is going on in a earthings life. Maybe even our future, as I believe they can time travel.. but what do it know?

Thank you so much for your comments, and questions jokelly, lorelei, and lois . There is nothing like being around others who understand this situation and the emotions involved. I "gave in" to the details of this event just in the last 5-6 yrs. after talking with my mom about it (she cried). To me, this puts a different spin on quite a few events in my life. It doesn't change everything (I don't think so, yet) but I have had some "revealing" dreams or episodes since my acceptance. jcurio

Allowing that something MIGHT BE true does not have to mean that we believe everything that comes into our minds. It means that we don't throw out things that don't fit with what we know. This IMO is the sign of an open mind and most scientists (especially those who discovered something that they weren't looking for - serendipity) have that quality. Some of them struggled against their discovery and tried to make the experiment turn out the way they expected it to - but were honest enough to admit that they couldn't.
