That's pretty cool.
I think many people are influenced by what they see on the movies and have preconceived ideas on what a sighting might be like, but I like to hear from people who hav seen something as it's often far different to the Hollywood version.
Did you feel weird, excited or scared...what did you feel and think?
At first I thought it was one of those floating candle lanterns. Once it stopped and stayed for a few minutes, I knew that wasn't the case. Kids and I were standing under a street light. Once it kicked in, for some reason my first instinct was to go stand off to the side in the dark. "Taking cover" but not really. Just out of the direct light. We stood there and, watched. Not fearful. Not frozen. Not even in awe. Just trying to process it.
Then when the others came, I knew exactly what I was looking at. Some big orange balls in the sky that shouldn't be there. It felt special. Peaceful. Totally calm. I was more confused with the first one. Then it became clear. I was satisfied I got my answer, in a way.
Told the kids not to tell anyone. I thought they'd get picked on. I was more worried people wouldn't believe them or they'd have trouble explaining it.
My oldest daughter remembers it. The other was too young at the time. She was more busy wondering why I'm asking them to stand on the side of the road in the dark.
This was before drones were so common as well. The flight path also followed the grid. Coming from south heading north, perfectly. Then directly east. Those lanterns can't do that. Plus these lights were much larger. Not bright or hard on the eyes at all.
Can't say I thought about much at the time. Once that was over we carried on with our walk. Life as usual.
I can't say for sure what it was. But that's what I saw and I have a witness.
I wouldn't mind seeing them again.
I asked because others I've spoken to have told me how they felt and they got that peaceful feeling also, calmness. Interesting huh?
I think the first thing to do is look for a logical reason/explanation for the sighting, that makes a person question it enough to delve into it. But when it's not explainable then one is forced to think outside the box and in ways that may force the paradigm to expand. Some don't have the ability for that of course.
I like this sort of thing, fascinates me, the unexplainable...annoys me too because I like to find answers.
Can't say for sure it was aliens. Been sitting here trying to type out this response thinking it could be something spiritual as well and my hair keeps standing on end. So maybe it was that. Whole body is tingling now. lol do you ever get that? I bet you will after reading this. I'll send them over.
There's that as well of course, there's many cases in which such (spiritual) sightings have been reported.
The tingles...I'm not sure if I want or need the tingles right now, unless they're fruit tingles...the yummy candy that tingles in the mouth from when I was a kid...I'd even share with the aliens.
Wow. Life Savers actually give you the entire candy over there in Australia instead of being cheap asses and putting a hole in the middle.
Lol...nah, we have the ones with the hole too, in little cylindrical packaging. As a kid I loved them!
