My thoughts are that until we become a bit more advanced and a bit more in control of our own planet, we will be passed upon as wanted members of the universal group of civilizations that do interact with one another.
I am sure we are not the only ones out there not being sent invitations to the Universal Ball of the United Forms of Life! I am sure there are others out there in space also struggling on the road to being a more tolerant civilized life form. I am however sad we do not seem to be moving ahead in terms of our own civil growth. In fact it seems we are at times moving backwards. Until the hate stops and peace grows I guess we will just remain on that galactic blacklist of don't invites. I am sure the Aliens will continue to ignore us until we can become better beings.
For now I am sure we are a interesting place on the universal space map to take a look at for amusement and curiosity, use for whatever purpose they may need and then pass by until next time they need something of ours or want a look at the primitive beings of planet Earth.
I am only one person and I can only do what I can to try to be better at this human game. I have decided that as of 2009-(actually starting this very moment) to be a better person.
In the past I reacted with a swift hand to aggression and hatred. I would slap back at it and cut those producing it to the quick before moving on. For my new year I am going to refuse to deal with hate. I am going to walk away. If you come at me with hatred I will turn off your show, or leave your chat area or turn my back and walk away from you. If you send me (which are very far and few) hateful comments I will simply block and ignore you. If you are a mean spirited hater, you will not fill my moments or take up any of my precious time.
I wonder if we all did this, just walked away from the hate what would happen? Who would the bullies torment if they did not have an audience, who would argue with a fool if no one was there to listen, who would ruin your day if you simply walked away and did not tolerate it?
I know the Aliens think we are uncivil and primitive. I do not want to continue that road and yet I can only change my own actions. So, come on 2009. I am determined to meet you with a strong heart and determined mind and continue to try to make my way to one of those Alien parties, just once before the end of my time!
Happy New Year to my wonderful readers and all they care for and love!
