For example, if we take half a glass of water,
to some it looks to be half empty and to some it looks to be half full. In
short, to every theory there is a difference in opinion as to how we see it.
Similarly, when we talk about ‘Aliens’ or the ‘Alien world’, there are
different opinions and views about the existence. The very word makes us
imagine all that is supernatural. We have seen a lot of movies about the Alien
world. Can you recall the funny characters with a horn on the head, or robotic
eyes or the 2 feet high powerful computerized forms?
There is a common perception about this word, which gives us the creeps.
We all have heard of UFOs (Unidentified Flying Objects). A lot of
people even claim to have seen such spaceships from the alien world which none
of us have ever seen. It has only been in stories so far, nothing concrete has
ever come up. Far sighted claims and deep research have revealed nothing which
proves that such a world exists.
The important question is, do aliens and a different world really
exist? Or are they just a part of our imagination? Again, the same conclusion…Who
knows??
Do we ever think that each of us has a common characteristic? That
is, we all are “aliens”. Yes, it’s true!! Each one of us is an alien, alien to
each other, alien to life around us and even alien to ourselves. I am an alien,
you are an alien, everyone is an alien!! At times, when we are confused, when
we are lost, when we can’t feel what we want to, when we want to say something
and can’t express it, when we fight our heart and mind, we all say, “I feel so
alien!!!!!!!!”
“Bull’s eye!”
When we all confess that we are aliens, then what are we
researching for? What do we want to prove?? More aliens!! Is that what we want
to hear??
Then,why does this word make us imagine what we have seen in the movies or what
we have read in books and novels. The word has a simple meaning,it means
‘unidentified’ or ‘unknown’.As we all are, unknown to each other,unknown to
life,unknown to ourselves.
We as humans are here to live, to feel and to learn.Life as a whole is a
learning process. If we think of life,it is so ‘alien’. So the best way is to
know more, know and respect things and people around us, know ourselves more
and, the uneasiness,the restlessness and the creepy feeling vanishes and we all
are left with one feeling, to learn more, to love each other more and above all
love ourselves more.
We are here to live.So live life and spread the word of love, of peace and
harmony, and we wont be aliens anymore!!!
