Transmission 055: Thinking of You

- - - - - GREETINGS, EARTHLING - - - - -

I thought I saw someone I hadn’t seen in a long time.

Big wave. Huge grin. Even walked over with that “Heyyy! It’s been forever!” energy.

Only… it wasn’t them.

I apologized. They were very kind. We laughed.

And then we saw each other three more times in the grocery store.

No escape. Just a polite game of aisle leapfrog until one of us checked out first.

Send someone a message.
Right now.
Someone you haven’t talked to in a while.

Not a big emotional thing. Just a soft ping.

“Thinking of you. Hope you’re well.”

That’s it. Doors don’t always swing open, but sometimes they creak, just enough to let the light in.

Maybe you’ll brighten someone’s day.

Bouncy balls.

Humanity, you did it. You engineered a material so springy, so chaotic, that a tiny sphere can vanish with one bounce, then re-enter orbit at the speed of light.

Imagine scaling this up for spacecraft.
Drop from altitude. Bounce off the stratosphere. Slingshot into orbit.
I’ve drawn up plans and shared them with my superiors.

Strange that this wonderful Earthling technology is basically relegated to a child’s plaything.

Greetings, Earthling is a free daily newsletter designed to help you slow down, feel better, and start your mornings with a sense of meaning. Written from the perspective of a curious space observer named NeilA, each transmission blends mindfulness, motivation, and emotional insight with a hint of cosmic wonder.

Inspired by Stoic philosophy, Tao, Alan Watts, behavioural science, and the strange beauty of being human, these messages offer gentle reminders to live with purpose, pay attention, and appreciate the little things. Part alien wisdom, part self-help, part poetic dispatch, it’s a daily pick-me-up disguised as a transmission from the stars.

If you’re looking for a mindful routine, a feel-good newsletter, or thoughtful guidance that fits in your inbox, you’re in the right place. This is for anyone who wants to be more present, more kind, and more connected to yourself, to others, and to the universe around you.

If this helped, pass it along. Or send them here. Signals get stronger when more receivers are tuned in.

Thank you for reading. Your presence means more than you know.
