I’ve been
having deep-space thoughts about the Cosmos today,
stellar thoughts
about billions upon billions of solar systems and
galaxies,
personal thoughts about extraterrestrial life thousands
of light
years away, radio-wave thoughts that our transmissions
may indeed
have already been received.
Some here on
Earth fear that one day we will have visitors from
afar who
like us have malicious designs on invading foreign lands
and peoples
to plunder and enslave. And I would question, why?
Should they
be technologically advanced enough to warp space/
time or
hyper-drive light years to reach us here, they would have
already done
so had they the need.
But perhaps
they consider us to be like the dysfunctional relation-
ship whose
calls we refuse to take. We had an Earth-like relation-
ship once,
they might be telling themselves, and what a mistake;
look where
that got us. No, my friends, they probably don’t need
starving
nations and a warlike people with which to contend.
They have more
than likely had enough of pollution and global
warming. In
all likelihood they have far surpassed the Walmart
and McDonald’s
mentality. Let’s just leave those Earthlings be.
After they’ve
been though therapy and in a few millennia, then
We’ll see.
(I imagine
if there should be a god of all creation way out there
somewhere,
he or she may be given deep-space pause to consider
pretty much
the same.)
