something mysteriously vanished. What should this do to an avowed sane human being without any original briefing of what the paranormal actually was? The truth is that nobody is ever really ready for when the bolt from the other side first strikes. It could be something that is meticulously planned right from the start off by a paranormal intelligence and nothing we learn truly prepares us for it. I have a personal quote for this impact: Nothing prepares you for anything alien other than something alien. My unprepared plunge into the paranormal had never left me traumatised or even distressed, but it does seem to have left its mark on me in some intangible way. My cognition and movements appear different and lack the fluidity that other peoples’ seem to have. I always feel an excess of nervous energy causing my movements to appear as jolts, something that scares the life out of horses! Also if there is such thing as IQ or at least a learning capacity then it is nowhere near the way it once was, the time when my interactors decided I needed to look elsewhere for inspiration. I cannot seem to pick up from the time during that academic flutter I experienced after my experience in the park late 1994. Concentration is more of a problem these days, and I feel that the spell I had been put under left a lasting side effect that hinders my ability to gather and coordinate thoughts. This has proved to be a problem both in the workplace and in study, but I am assuming that this restrictive barrier is only the residue of a spell once cast and perhaps a motivated concentration is the way to break through it. My choice to write is perhaps a wise one. Other effects left over from my experiences appear to be psychic in nature although very unrefined. There are still times when I find my presence affects electrical objects such as the radio or TV and that light objects are occasionally magnetised to me, all feats that I fail miserably to conjure deliberately. I also seem to have an intuition of people and their emotions by mutually experiencing part of their psyche and sometimes their dreams. Understandably this could put pressure on both myself close family or in a worse scenario cause me to become a likely volunteer or psychic lab rat for the fanatics that are sometimes drawn to this science. I don’t want this to happen, but more importantly I desperately need to protect myself from the things that disclosing such claims can cause. I need anonymity and therefore certain details and facts in this story have been altered to protect my identity. My name is not well known and will suffice if it guarantees the safety of my own immediate sphere of affairs and those closest to me. Those people are not even aware of my double life. 115
