The first thing that opened my eyes:

[EYES WIDE OPEN]

I saw the clip below today over on the debunking the debunkers website.

This was the single clip that set me on the path we are all on:

I saw this on the internet back in 2002 I think before youtube was even around. When the secret service guy stood down - my mind was blown and my eyes open to a wider reality.

This is where my journey started. I am sure you have all seen it but it reminded what a long way I have come in 10 years.

I also recommend watching the men that killed Kennedy on youtube if you have never seen it. There are 3 parts.

Part 1:

Thanks EWO,

there is a nine part series of this as well ( all 45 minutes or so, very good), i wanted to post it but it seemed to be so chewed out allready, but when i see this short clip i am sorry i didnt post it.

Bump for your post.

[EYES WIDE OPEN]

You have been chosen as a candidate for best username on the board! Made me chuckle anyway.

Thanks for posting. Of course I have watched this many times over the years but now realise I didn't really 'look' - it is amazing evidence as the body language speaks volumes. I am now going to watch 'The Men who Killed Kennedy' - I had better give up on any plans for the weekend!

My Holy S^&t moment was the first time I watched the John Lear interviews back in 2009.

For me it started when an American borrowed me "Crossing The Rubicon" by Michael Ruppert in 2004 who I guess never read this book.

My eye opener came when the doctor told me that they saw a white object in the base of my dad's scull and they didn't know what it was, and was looking for an answer from me.

I've been at it since I was 5, and in a serious sense, as in adult type mind that is moving forward, instead of simply being affected (reacting) by the wind.....since age 12-13.

Yes, eyes opened, age 5. (peak moment)

But seriously, in my case...the process began at about 48-72 hours, age wise.

Some lives are like that. It can help make one more intelligent, if one can survive and navigate the pitfalls that create insanity and other issues.

[Kari Lynn]

Indeed, it is far better to be proactive than reactive. Not the easiest frame of mind to keep though. I think age and experience in life helps though.

At 11, I steped off the beaten path. I did not hurry, but I never stopped. Now I soar where Eagles dare not fly.

When quite young I knew UFO aliens were real and that some day my encounter would come... and it did.
Then when a little older, second grade or so, a nun told me that my girlfriend would not go to heaven
because she was not Catholic. I understood then that if the Church was lying to me then probably most people were.
Ive been on the truth quest ever since resulting in 'antisocial' behavior when quite young and continuing to this day...
for which if some degree of pride is appropriate, I would say Im proud.
as I've said, Im a conspiracy theorist and proud of it.
I theorize based on my vision which is largely, but yet not perfectly 20/20
55 years now immersed in the awakening process with eyes open, willing to see (most of the time anyway)
the hardest thing yet to see and accept is how mean people can be before they awaken... this is very hard and a relfection of my attachment

[WhiteFeather]

The first thing that opened my eyes was finding my innerself. Once thats found, the floodgates had opened up for me.

I understood then that if the Church was lying to me then probably most people were.
Wow, you are advanced! I figured it was just the church lying to me. It was decades before I figured out that the lies were coming from every direction, and not just from the church. And you figured it out as a child! I am humbled.

Well I would not say that I saw it all clearly, immediately, it was a process of seeing, denying, fearing, letting go and then accepting that ya, this is f^cked. Long stretches of denial especially when it came to immediate family. I think it was what turned me into a loner, easier to be alone and silent than to confront reality and I kept trying to please to make it right that which could not be right. But ya, I knew my parents were messed up pretty early, and some friends too, and I saw that before i started to see my parents. Very confusing for a child. I did not transfer it all to governmental types of stuff until I starting looking at the Vietnam War in high school for I had not a signle thought analytic thought about government until then

Hmm.... I remember asking my Sunday school teacher about why the Bible says the world was made in six days- but then how can dinosaurs have existed?

It was then that I realized that not everything that people in the position of authority tell you is the truth- even if they have the best of intentions about why they're lying to you.
