10,000 Light Years Away

10,000 LIGHT YEARS AWAY I was not born on earth but on planet that is 10,000 light years away from here. I was sent here to watch and observe, to evaluate how far you have progressed mankind. It has a long hard journey and watching the hurt, pain and contempt that promotes fear Presents a poor outlook for this species and my belief that this world will end and mankind WILL DESTROY ITSELF FROM WITHIN. I have had enough, I want to go home but it seems that for some reason my kind has forgotten where I am and have not come back. I do not want to be here for this planets end, there is so much peace and love on the planet of my birth. One last thought, maybe the end can bring a new beginning for all and life can get back on track. Does world wide destruction have to be the catalyst for mankind to follow through with the values that came with our birth Before we learned how to hate ourselves and each Other.
