A Space Creature's Perspective On Humans
Sanaya Gopalani (Age 10)
Human beings really do have hope. I have been watching these human beings for a while. At least that's what they seem to call them selves. But deep down they are animals just like the other creatures on that planet. Yet these animals or humans are the smartest thing on their planet. Floating up here in the dark can get lonely but watching them can keep me occupied for weeks, when other parts are asleep the rest are full of life. Human beings re ally do have hope.
But recently they have not been going out too much, it was all be cause of Covid- 19, I would be scared too with all the doors shut and nobody outside to feel the change of the weather. They have hope that people will find a cure and they have hope things will get better. I have found some thing pretty extra or di nary about these humans, They always have hope. They think they have lost it but that is not true, the way they have survived this long was be cause they had hope.
I love to research their forms of communication. I find it really interesting, it's different. I have never seen any thing like it. My people never do any communication like that, they only talk, they don't text on these odd things humans call phones and lap tops, or my people do not talk through FaceTime. Nobody knows what it is up here, if we cannot find each other we let it go but humans have hope to find each other and they use their phones, laptops, or Ipads to ask where their friend or family are. There are things I do not get about them. They think they have lost all their hope but they have not why do they think that? Human beings really do have hope.
