My Abduction Experiences

The First Time...

 

The aliens must have started abducting me at an early age; you can see from the photo how I started imitating their appearance with sunglasses.

 

 

Into Childhood...

 
In my childhood and adolescence, I often awoke during very bad nosebleeds. This was clearly a result of the aliens placing their tracking objects up my nose. Also I clearly had an interest in space and the stars.

The Sound of Ships

High Overhead

Often, even into adulthood, I would occasionally hear a high-pitched whine that no one else around me ever heard. Well, I never actually hear it, it's more like I feel it, like a change of pressure. According to a posting on the USENET newsgroup alt.alien.visitors, this sort of high-pitched sound indicates that a UFO is flying overhead.

Another posting in the newsgroup suggested that feeling a sense of entitlement and satisfaction when automatic doors open indicates a familiarity with aliens. I have always felt that too.

Coming to Terms...

 

And most recently, I have come to grips with my alien abductors, or Space Brothers, however you want to refer to them, and have welcomed them as a part of my life.*

THE TRUTH IS OUT THERE...

What IS Alien Abduction, Really?

Maybe it is really happening... Maybe the Zeta Reticuli aliens are on earth, have made deals with our government and others, maybe they are responsible for abductions, cattle mutilations, etc.

Or maybe these people have seen Blue Man Group perform in New York, and just think they have been abducted by sheer fun.

I did.

Or perhaps, they are not among us. Perhaps alien abduction is the way people who are dreaming are perceiving the collective unconscious and are seeing archetypal images colored through modern technological filters. Once, people saw angels and devils because they were the supernatural beings who visited the earth. Now, in these technological times, people perceive their experiences in terms of technology, and the beings from outside are aliens from other planets. We are rewriting the myths for a new techno-age.

Spoken like someone who reads Carl Jung and Joseph Campbell, no? (And no, I do not believe that I have ever been abducted by aliens...)
