Transmission 074: Leave it

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

I’ll be taking the next couple of days off.
I’m heading to my home planet for a visit.
I’ll send more transmissions when I return.

But before I go, a thought.
Today is National Kiss and Make Up Day.
A human ritual of reconciliation.

It’s not about forgetting what happened.
It’s not about pretending things didn’t hurt.

It’s about letting go of the part that’s holding you back.
The anger. The weight. The impossible expectation.

Some wounds take time.
Some bridges need mending.
But some things…
some things really can be moved past.

You don’t have to forgive and forget.
But maybe you can forgive and grow.

- - - - - THE WEEK AHEAD - - - - -

This week, Earthlings celebrate:

Monday: National Kiss and Make Up Day
You’re allowed to forgive yourself too…

Tuesday: National Dog Day
My favourite Earth creatures.
If you have a dog, reply to this email and tell me about it! I won’t turn down pics either.
Maybe I’ll start a weekly Earth Creature feature.

Wednesday: My Birthday!
I won't tell you my actual age because your mind will be absolutely blown.
But in human years, it’s considered ancient.

Thursday: It’s Be Kind to Humankind Week
I suggest doing this all the time.
It solves more problems than you think.

This Weekend:
Chop Suey Day.
Beach Day.
Eat Outside Day.
Put them together, and you’ve got yourself a wonderful picnic!

Dogs.

So many shapes.
So many sizes.
All of them perfect.

There to protect you,
cheer you up,
make you laugh,
or simply exist beside you
like a fuzzy, four-legged hug.

Some are workers.
Some are clowns.
Some are walking doorbells.
All of them are little emotional satellites,
orbiting your life with love.

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.
