Some researchers think there might be a connection between UFOs and angel sightings. They say the angels and heavenly figures encountered in the Bible might actually have been extraterrestrials.
After his experience in the 1980s with “the most beautiful thing” he ever saw, Lewis L. might agree with that assessment.
It was a Saturday morning in Mariposa, California, and Lewis had to work that day. The air was fresh from a cool rain the night before, and the morning sky was bright with a few scattered clouds.
“I was heading out to my car in the back parking lot of the apartment complex where I lived when I noticed someone kneeling next to my car,” Lewis says. “This person saw me and quickly stood up holding a crowbar.”
The young man was quite obviously startled by Lewis’s interruption, and although Lewis sensed the boy was up to no good, it hadn’t yet hit him what he was doing. Then Lewis looked through the passenger window of his car and saw that the steering wheel column had been stripped of its cover. He realized that the young man was trying to steal his car.
“I asked him what the hell he was doing,” Lewis recalls. “He gave me a lame story about his friend’s car being stolen last night and that my car looked like his friend’s and so on. I didn’t want to hear it. I told him I was going to call the police, which I did on my cell phone.”
Lewis dialed 911 and gave the dispatcher the address. He told the would-be thief that the police were on their way and warned him not to leave. The boy said he would wait for the police, but Lewis could tell he was just waiting for the right moment to make a run for it.
“If he did, I wasn’t going to try to stop him because his adrenaline was pumping and he had that crowbar,” Lewis says.
As Lewis was grilling the young man, trying to detain him, he began to notice three rather large clouds in a single-file formation that were almost overhead.
“Then I saw it,” he says. “A shiny object exiting from the first cloud and entering the next and then coming out of that one. It was shiny, like brightly polished chrome, and moving at a good speed. I couldn’t make out the shape.”
By this time, Lewis was so distracted by the UFO that the punk saw his chance and took off. That’s when the object entered the last cloud. From there it was nothing but open sky. “When it emerged, my life changed,” Lewis says.
“There against the richness of the blue sky was a silvery shape that seemed to have arms and legs! It was so beautiful to look at. At the same time, it had the appearance of metal. It looked like some kind of ship with a strange design. The best way I can describe it is it looked like silverware in the design of the stickman children draw. It was huge, moving fast and made no noise.
“As it sailed overhead, some of the limbs would move up and down, giving the impression of being alive – a living entity! It made a couple of rolls, reflecting the sun in every direction – just beautiful … oh my god, beautiful!
“As it started to fade away from my view, I found myself short of breath and with tears running down my cheeks. It had that much of an effect on me. I began thinking maybe that’s what an angel looks like. Maybe not!”

One day King came to his garden and saw withering and dying trees, bushes and flowers.
An oak said it dies because it can’t be as high as a pine.
A pine tree was falling down because it could not give grapes like a grapevine.
Meanwhile the grapevine was dying because it couldn’t blossom like a rose.
But soon the King found a single plant, pleasing heart, bloomy and fresh.
The king asked: -All the trees and flowers here are withering, and you are flourishing, why? – I think it comes naturally. You have planted me, because it was Your wish and Your choice. If you would like to grow an oak, grapes or rose, you would plant them. And I cannot be anything else than what I am. So I try to develop my best qualities.
Look at yourself. You can be only yourself. It is impossible for you to become someone else. You can enjoy life and blossom or you can wither if you do not accept yourself.
