1 This has been happening since i was 8 years old i am now 51 years old it has happened in many places around the world they seem to just find you. 2 They let you know they are there.3 The first time i didn't know what it was i was terified but soon found out.4 The environment keeps changing it is hard to say.5 Pain , lost time. gained time, gained vast amounts of information unwillingly , had no control of the situation,since my first encounter i have suffered with a complete unawareness of time and how unimportant it is in the big picture of things, I have spent a life time in innovation and design, I have built many of the things i have seen and have a complete understanding of them all. I have met many Phd, Dr, physicist, and engineers,in many areas from Medical to Aerospace,propulsion power generation. and I have been able to not just keep up with them but 9 out of 10 times i run rings around them not meaning any disrespect. its just my understanding of things are now different .5 you don't loose site of them , time just seems to change and its all over.
