A note to Aliens from other worlds considering visiting Earth
Humanity as a group does not look so good a lot of the time.
We seem to find ways to suffer even when we have little to suffer about.
We like to group together and then start arguing soon after that.
A lot of us seem to get our identity from who we hate then starting to be just like them.
Empathy is an important component that often does not develop without activating parenting while maturing setting boundaries and consequences.
We can be most dangerous when we perceive resources are limited or when we are just bored.
We have the capacity to appreciate what we have but seldom use it.
We are attracted to drama and emotions vs. heart, compassion, and logic. We would rather blame someone else for things not working out for us overtaking personal reasonability for what we can control and doing something about it. Anger sits on a fear that sits on grief which us scares the most to look at.
We are an underserved evolved creature in a walking sleep state that thinks it is awake. When we act selflessly it is usually clocked selfishness or arrogance that we are not aware of.
We have about almost 8 billion people here and we all think we are special (which is not very special).
At a core level, we care about our families and looking good and staying safe but forget it in bigger groups, and just when our emotions get wound up for many reasons. We are also unaware of the fact that the more we focus on hating another group or person the more we become like them. In very small groups or one on one, we can be civilized.
If you want to help us please scare us enough that we are forced to work together. You may have to come back. I am also open to other ideas that get us to operating as adults that are civilized, self-aware, and intelligent life.
I have hope for us in a million years or if you come sooner and do what I asked.
