Ah, yes. It is all in the point of view, isn't it. A good example would be:
This story happened a while ago in Dublin , and even though it sounds like an Alfred Hitchcock tale, it is indeed true.
John Bradford, a Dublin University student, was on the side of the road hitchhiking on a very dark night and in the midst of a big storm. The night was rolling on and no car went by. The storm was so strong he could hardly see a few feet ahead of him.
Suddenly, he saw a car slowly coming towards him and stopped. John , desperate for shelter and without thinking about it, got into the car and closed the door, only to realize there was nobody behind the wheel and the engine wasn't on. The car started moving slowly. John looked at the road ahead and saw a curve approaching. Scared, he started to pray, begging for his life. Then, just before the car hit the curve, a hand appeared out of nowhere through the window, and turned the wheel. John , paralyzed with terror, watched as the hand came through the window, but never touched or harmed him.
Shortly thereafter, John saw the lights of a pub appear down the road. Gathering strength, he jumped out of the car and ran to the establishment. Wet and out of breath, he rushed inside and started telling everybody about the horrific experience he had just had. A silence enveloped the pub when everybody realized he was crying... and wasn't drunk.
Suddenly, the door opened, and two other people walked in from the dark and stormy night. They, like John , were also soaked and out of breath. Looking around, and seeing John Bradford sobbing at the bar, one said to the other, "Look, Paddy....thar be the fooking idiot that got into the car while we were pushin' it!'
I must say, I sure burst out laughing. That's the way life is, our point of view, whether it is about a "ghost" car or SETI and UFO's, changes as we go through life.
Will those 'others' ever come forward and introduce themselves to mankind? Looking/watching how STUPID and RETARDED we, mankind, is when it comes to taking care of our planet, Mother Earth... ah, maybe not, eh? Raping it, poisoning it, killing it, killing some parts of her already that will be unusable for over 10,000 years from the contamination we cause.
If YOU were one of 'those' beings, would YOU want to meet us face to face? Maybe not, eh?
Do I personally believe 'they' are 'out there' watching us? Maybe, maybe not. Is there other life? I think there would HAVE to be, with galaxy's going on forever with trillions of stars, many with planetary systems.
Life is so precious, so cool, so wonderful... and we, mankind as a whole, treats it, Mother Earth, so poorly in exchange for what she gives us in return. Will our great, great, great grandkids have anything to look forward to? Or will all of Earth be nothing but a cesspool with few or no resources left for them?
It IS up to us, each generation.
Point of view.
