I accidentally posted an unfinished journal entry called “Let’s Do It” in this space last night. It was posted out of sequence and will be reposted shortly.

What I intended to do, as 2008 gets rolling, is to post the first couple of paragraphs from my first journal entry, originally posted in February of 1998, 10 years ago. The entry was entitled “What I Believe”, and I find that I would not change a word of it, even now. Here is what I believe:

At 4:53 in the morning on Friday, December 7, I saw a strange object over Santa Monica, California. This was fantastic enough, but the events that preceded the sighting may have been some sort of contact experience. If so, it was the first I have had in years.

I’m going to begin with the sighting, and then go back to the beginning of the previous evening, and describe what I think was one of the more interesting perceptual experiences I’ve had in years.

This morning I opened the latest issue of the New Scientist and found myself reading that a SECOND universe is apparently out there beyond our own. I have to admit that I was, quite simply, knocked speechless. This is because, when I was talking to the Master of the Key, he said that there were universes beyond our own.

So when he said, “There are more galaxies in your universe than there are stars in your galaxy, and more universes in the firmament than there are galaxies in your universe,” (P.67) I listened politely and changed the subject.

Last week, Dennis Kucinich nearly ruined his presidential candidacy by admitting during the last Democratic debate that he had not only seen a UFO but been moved by the experience. Jimmy Carter then reiterated his often-stated comment that he does not know what he saw in 1969?that it was a moving light. The U.S. media reacted to Kucinich?s statement, intentionally elicited by Tim Russert, in the same way that the debate audience reacted?with chuckles. Kucinich courageously expanded on his previous comments at Drexel University, again eliciting laughter.

Kucinich was extraordinarily brave, but his admission not only of what he had seen but what he had felt–the visitors reaching to his mind–has marginalized him even further.
