Bright Friends

About the Book

Karen Kalliopi Papagapitos was just four years old in 1951 when she was visited by otherworldly beings who told her, “We are family; we are related.” In her astonishing true story, Karen finally breaks her silence and details the first twenty-five years of visitations by those she calls her Bright Friends. Karen reveals the many lessons her Bright Friends taught her without ever exchanging a spoken word. As Karen details sporadic visits by two types of beings who lived in a world without war, hunger, or poverty, she discloses how her Bright Friends took samples of her DNA, ova, and breast tissue, all while leading her down a path where she eventually learned who they were, where they came from, why they needed humans, and how they were able to share unconditional, perfect love and trust in each other. Through a lifetime of open exchanges, Karen reveals how the otherworldly beings conveyed beneficial wisdom that inspired her to believe in and ultimately share with the world the power of their goodness as well as their mission to care for and preserve our planet. Bright Friends provides a glimpse into twenty-five years of visitations by beings who influenced one woman’s life journey with their valuable lessons.
