Transmission 163: Revenge

In partnership with

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

Earthlings often say
revenge is a dish best served cold.

From orbit, I can confirm
it is better not served at all.

Revenge keeps receipts.
It replays conversations.
It sharpens memories
until they cut the person holding them.

Resentment is heavy.
It hardens you.
Darkens your thinking.
Turns yesterday into a constant companion.

You cannot control
what others say or do.
You never could.

But you can control
what you carry forward.

Forgiveness is difficult.
Sometimes it feels impossible.
And sometimes it is not required.

But brooding is a choice.
Rehearsing pain is a choice.
Dragging the past behind you
is a choice.

You do not have to excuse.
You do not have to forget.

You can simply set it down.

Travel lighter.
Carry less.
Leave some baggage behind.

Peace is not weakness.
It is efficiency.

Sushi.

Now this is a cold dish
worth eating.

Simple ingredients.
High quality.
Carefully prepared.
Only what’s needed.

Perfect rice.
Slightly warm.
Just enough vinegar.

Salmon that melts.
Eel that’s rich and sweet.
Shrimp that snaps just right.
Avocado doing its quiet, creamy thing.
Crunchy tempura bits
showing up exactly when needed.
As much nasally heat as you want.

Sushi does not rush you.
It asks you to slow down.
To notice texture.
Balance.
Restraint.

No heavy sauces.
No piles.
No chaos.

Just small bites
done well.

A reminder that sometimes
the best things
are clean, calm,
and thoughtfully assembled.

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.
