Alien in Exile #25
The perspective that you will hear from today is from someone who is not from earth but also not from anywhere else. We are the underground, we are an outsider, we are outcast, we are, the alien in exile.
Hello humans. We have become a little annoyed with how this world works. There seems to be a lot of problems that need solutions. We do not pretend to have all of the solutions, for there are a great number of issues going on in the world today. However we do have some solutions, and we would like to share with you our perspective on an issue with human systems and cognitive processes.
The perspective for today is: Time. Humans have this strange need to measure everything. Even something not really measurable such as time, which humans have assumed is linear and finite. We would like to offer you a new idea: think of time like a circle, infinite and when spherical can travel in any direction. This is the correct observance of space and time. Now you are probably thinking about how big is the circle and imagining a sphere. Well, just think of a sphere that is turned inside out and is ever expanding. This is the universe.

If you measure time, you put a finite quality on it. We have observed that some humans like to think of prophecy and the end of time. We have some news for you: the Earth and the universe is going to keep on existing long after humans are gone. Maybe even humans will continue to exist, after becoming extinct on this planet, just differently, in another form. This is not a new idea, some humans call it the afterlife. We can tell you that it is not the afterlife, because you are measuring again and assuming that something comes after, and has a before and a present time.
We have a solution even if you do not understand anything we have already said. Just. Stop. Measuring. It is our simplest solution. You can still keep your numbers, and your mathematics, it is easy enough to count everything on this planet. Also, it seems humans like formulas to define their surroundings. But you must stop measuring things that can not be counted! Time is one such thing. Humans use devices like clocks and a calendar system, these devices are useless and are not even accurate enough to help you make sense of your world.

Unfortunately, time measurement is a system designed by your leaders quite a while ago. We have heard that there are some cultures on your planet who do not measure time. Kudos to them! They are truly free from that limited perspective. We believe these humans should become the new leaders of your planet. We already discussed in blog #3 how the outsiders of this planet would make the best leaders, and could perpetuate effective change. Please refer to blog #3 for the details of that solution, because we do not want to be redundant.
Conclusion: Just. Stop. Measuring. Time. And get new leaders because the ones you have are on a path to destruction. We are the Alien in Exile and we want humans to thrive, because we are stuck here, and are trying to make the best of it.
