One day, you wake up and realize it has become a personal journey that becomes even more difficult to explain than the sheer existence of these beings. God makes no mistakes. There is a reason why it gets into our blood like it does. I have often wondered if He has not used this creature to teach us lessons in life, such as humility, honesty in the face of adversity, to take the high road instead of engaging in oral arguments,courage in its various forms,learning to reflect negative remarks and most of all, sacrificing our relationships with non-believers. Sasquatch is more than the experience itself, that is the perk that keeps us going; Sasquatch is learning what it is to be totally human in it's rarest form. I am so glad to see you have been inspired to return and that your destiny is back on track once again.

Dan V. - I understand and agree. Every day, as I do this, I am conscious of the responsibility of walking a fine line between sharing information with the public while maintaining the safety of these amazing creatures. Long ago, I decided that my priorities were the comfort and confidentiality of eyewitnesses and the protection of a species that deserves our utmost respect. There is information that I keep close to my vest for those very reasons. There are people in this world who would attempt to assuage their curiosity or gain fame or fortune, no matter what the consequences or who they destroy in the process. I try to be careful not to assist them - even indirectly. :) Thank you all for your kind words and encouragement.

Tue, 28 Jul 2009 15:27:56 +0000 http://www.oregonbigfoot.com/blog/?p=175#comment-20 I understand ... believe me. I just want to say that there's nothing wrong with following a dream, with having a quest in life. Passion is what keeps us all going from day to day, year to year. Lesser people may laugh at you, criticize you, discourage you, or even question your sanity. Don't let those apathetic, closed minded, individuals deter you from your living your passion. Your momma said it right, ... "your motivation is pure of heart, and not one that is out for fame and fortune". Just keep one thing in mind, if one day you do have that ultimate encounter with the Sasquatch, consider keeping that encounter a secret, lest you contribute to the inevitable demise of the species. Personally, I'm not sure I'd want Mr. BigFoot's existance proven by capture or other insurmountable evidence. Perhaps it's better to keep BigFoot a mystery. Personally, if I ever encountered BigFoot in the wild, ... and lived to tell about it, I'd be very careful about whom I shared that experience with. I understand … believe me.
