I could see the size of it in comparison to street lamps and it outsized them 100-1 easily! It floated smoothly from left to right and I was just mesmerised. The other people in the room continued to talk, I could hear them, but I couldn't draw their attention to what I was seeing. What happened next was astounding. The singular light shot into three smaller lights in a triangular shape! I shit you not! I could not speak, I could not move. After the lights changed into the triangle shape the object drifted down behind the trees. This whole interaction took maybe a minute to two minutes, I'm not really sure because like I said, I couldn't move, I was stuck. When it was all over, I went directly to my desk and drew what I'd seen so I'd never forget it. I tried to tell the guys what I'd seen but I don't think they believed me.

Interesting. Some things you just can't explain. And some things, no matter how sincere you are, no one will ever believe you.

I was 13 riding my horse in the back country one beautiful fall day. I sat on his back and watched this HUGE craft floating towards me. It was silent, absolutely silent. As well all the sounds of the field and bushes... also silent. I watched it for about 15 minutes. And then it simply took off, silently, at a speed I could not even fathom. Nothing was ever the same after that. Nothing. It changed so much about how I viewed the world and all things around it.

It was then (and perhaps before) I realized I would never fit in with the cool kids!!!
