Because it was so totally out of my normal eveyday life and way of thinking. Some people might get visitations often but I am 50 and this was my first. I wasn't scared at the time, the episode and communication was very gentle and non invasive. It just played with my mind afterwards and since.......the same way talking with the deceased did at first - its hardly mainstream is it

Its becoming more accetable but only just recently. I was scared I was going off the deep end and imagined it, but I can't of because I didn't know the information in the first place. I expect there must be other life forms out there, I just didn't expect to be spoken to by one in my garden. Its like, in life we are raised with a set standard of knowledge of life, we only know what we've learnt. I grew up in a very athiest family and nothing out of the norm was ever discussed, when I tried to express certain things that occurred to me it was trashed. I grew up believing myself to be a little 'mad' I spent 25 yrs with a husband who also agreed I was not quite right, and didn't hear spirits just voices in a delusional way. This was weird beyond my normal weird! I mentioned it to my partner who knows I am very psychic but still just sat and stared at me. Its like the Earth being flat thing in the 20 century, the general population doesn't believe alien life forms speak to us in our garden - and I was of that mentality until proven different. Then I get into the - how the hell can I be from there, I can't even reconcile the reincarnation thing! I can see why Gazz believes the way she does, I have to be knocked over the head a hundred times before I start to believe something, until then I just walk around more than a little bemused by everything!
