Hi YB, hope all is good.
Yes i was talking about the people that type on the forum regularly that feel uncomfortable to open up. I understand there are many many people out in the public that dont want to talk about it, and thats there discretion. But if those who want to chat on a forum they need to not feel attacked so they can open up.
Remember i was a F & B believer at the beginning so i completely understand there view point. And as iv said so many times They wont believe the para side until they see it with there own eyes. We get discredited from people that dont even go in the bush so how would they ever know what the truth is.
I bet you hear lots of great stories, some are fascinating. Dee
Hi Dee. You will have to get some evidence and prove them wrong or just dont worry and enjoy what your doing and having these experiences and trying to work them out.
I doubt anyone is going to agree 100 percent on a lot of these things. I dont see the point of taking sides and i dont know what the yowie is anyway. Ill take either type experience!
Most peoples encounters seem to be of the flesh and blood type or at least that's how it was interpreted so its gping to be hard to convince them its paranormal when they have seen or think they've seen something thats flesh and blood like them and vice versa for the paranormal type encounters.
I agree people should go out in the bush and have a look for themselves if they are able. Too much emphasis on going to the hotspots and remote areas that puts people off imo.
Hi YB,
You say "Most people's encounters seem to be of the flesh and blood type or at least that's how it was interpreted" [Unquote] very well said and the definitive word here is interpreted.
Most people use the Flesh and Blood conclusion but that has not been determined especially the blood bit yes you view them in what appears to be a physical form but that may not be as we know it so it's all just theoretical.
Not being argumentative here because your above statement was spot on.
I would think it would be more common that encounters would be interpreted as a flesh and blood being because the majority of us are conditioned to not entertain thoughts of paranormal beings and pre convinced they dont exist.
Also it's possible to interpret it as a paranormal experience when the yowie is exhibiting their physical side as well because it is all so quick and unnatural to us.
Ill tell you this because you have a genuine interest in this stuff. Im sure no one else will read it.
After the encounter my mate and I had, we went over it again and again for years but never discussed it as adults because, believe it or not, I didn't want to talk about it. One of my many theories was that it was all the one thing and it changed size or shapeshifted even though i didnt know what shape-shifting was.
Even now I can remember my thought process and emotions I experienced at the time. I can even see the shallow creek beds we crossed with the lines of black sand and patterns while looking down and then looking up at the creature again.
I can see the whole thing go down in my head still plain as day including clear images of its face and body. The different smells it had and what it was doing and the noise. I even remember wiping its spit off my face and head after it went away while we were still running and my mate asking if I was ok.
Thing is I can barely remember anything of the night at all before the event and the one thing I do remember is something mirroring our footsteps and us stopping and yelling out to see if someone was there.
Youd think that would be something we would remember but we never discussed it or associated it with the encounter.
Also you would think that after hearing that and being sure there was something there that we would of got out of there as quickly as we could?
Mind manipulation to make us keep walking maybe?. We were also very calm up until the thing screamed at us and the scream itself was like being in another world!
Some really scary images of its face I have, one in particular, I cant see but if my brain lets me see it then I have a flash of another bad childhood memory. Weird!
I had another experience I mentioned on the forum and got flack for and its weird too the way my mind deals with it and splits it up into parts even though I never took my eyes off the thing once I saw it.
Ive also walked for kilometers in that area that im very familiar with and never crossed any walking tracks even though theres walking tracks crisscrossing the area.
Also been walked in circles and back to my car, walked back to where I was and ended up walking back to the car again when I wasnt ready to leave. Seen a few researchers say that too on this forum.
Im pretty sure they can mess with our heads or something can but I still dont really consider that paranormal.
