Today, I have reprinted a portion of chapter 14, "Werewolves of California" from my book, Dream Weaver. It is to be found under "Essays" in the website.
Oddly, now I think of this incident only as a chapter from my book, not as something real. But it was. I had been telling the story to friends for years before putting it down in this book, which itself revealed an unknown aspect of myself - that, for me, the miraculous was always expected, as if waiting in the wings of my unconscious. After the sighting of Bigfoot, I did not experience any other psychic disorder, nor a repeat of the vision. Apparently, after reading several other accounts, seeing Bigfoot from a distance, where it is not personally involved with you, does not cause the disturbances of those who have looked it in the eye. I suppose I am grateful for that, but like Cal Roeker in his comment, I kinda sorta wouldn't mind a life-altering event - even as others warn us off. Many of us share this hope, I bet. But even the Biblical prophets warn of such things, seeing their roll in exposing the supernatural as a terrible burden. And so I was let off easy. I personally know several people who were not, but for now, I'll leave it at that. FK
