Explaining to an alien from a Galaxy light years away… What it means to be a human being on planet Earth….
You see Mr. Alien, we have to have a central processor which we call a brain…. We have a flesh blood and bone housing contained in SKIN… which is an outer covering holding us together….The top part of our structure is called the Head… We refer to the bone encasement as our SKULL, which is the housing for our brain…. One of our main senses, SIGHT, comes from what are called eyes, placed usually symmetrically in the forehead of the skull… These eyes can vary in color and are very beautiful usually, and are called the ‘windows to the soul’….the soul being, what some would consider to be the ‘very life force of our existence… And it comes from an entity that we call God… And I will say at this point, that there are many opinions about just WHO this God is…. I almost forgot, the eyes enable us to see everything in the world around us…
Continuing…. Just below and centered between the eyes is our second sense which is Olfactory, and is called SMELL and smelling is accomplished with a NOSE… Air, which is mainly oxygen comes from our atmosphere and is inhaled through what are called ‘nostrils’… there are usually two, one to each side, small openings below ( but part of) the nose, which carry the life giving force called ‘oxygen’ into what are called our lungs, which are our life sustaining breathing organs, ( The lungs oxygenate blood, which has to be carried to all parts of our body, supplying this oxygen) we are born with two lungs hopefully…
These lungs, our breathing apparatus, are in the main part of our upper body, just below what is called the neck, which holds the head & extends down into the beginning of the upper body, called a TORSO / CHEST… Inside this chest are some of the main features of our body, the heart & the already mentioned lungs….below these are our food processing large intestine, and small intestine, there are other organs… We have what are called kidneys which are filters ( these filters are important because we have to eat food & drink mainly water, that comes from the Earth, (below you will find referenced the MOUTH).. Another important organ is called the liver, there are other organs of importance, but of a lesser concern right now… Next is the main supplier of our third sense called TOUCH… The sense of touch is accomplished with what are called arms that have what are called hands at the very end of them…. Each hand has four fingers and a thumb, ( I might add that the thumbs are a very distinguishing part of our hands, that provide the dexterity of these so called ‘hands’)… all fingers & thumbs make our main sense of touch possible…. And I’m happy to say that other parts of the body are involved with the sense of touch…
Now we come to the middle and lower part of our human bodies which are supported by two legs… Which enable us to move about… three of the functions of our legs, are support, and what is called walking and running.. This support, this walking and running is accomplished by two feet, one attached to each leg, that enables us to stand on the ground… This being able to stand is accomplished by what are called TOES… five toes on each foot…
Now we come to a most important area, ( backing up a little bit to the middle to lower region of our bodies) where is located what is called our reproductive area…. There are two genders to our species, they are called male and female… The male has an appendage that extends to what are differing lengths ( These lengths are typically referred to by earthlings as endowments) extending from what is called the pelvic area… There are differing opinions about the importance of size of the appendage typically called a penis… Larger seems to be better, although this is not a universal opinion… especially amongst those that are endowed with a smaller penis…(smirk)….[ Don’t worry my little gray friends, I will explain to you what a human ‘smirk’ is next time we get together]…The female has what is called a vagina…. which is very attractive to the man, and is the receptacle for his penis… The man becoming very excited about the woman’s anatomy, so his penis fills up with blood ( getting what is called a WOODY OR WOODROW in street language… Enabling the man to insert his member ( penis) into the woman’s vagina…where by his doing this, he becomes so excited as to release his sperm into the woman, causing her to become pregnant and keep the species going… When human beings are first born they are called babies, and have to have extreme care up to a certain age, and then they become adults… And the cycle is repeated… Thus promoting and sustaining our species…
Finally, having covered the main parts of the human body, which is only introductory in nature, as far as this lesson goes… We have two more senses to talk about, which take us back up to the head area of the human body… One of the senses is accomplished with what is called a mouth, with is an opening just below the nose… The MOUTH helps us to accomplish many things, the main one being TASTE while eating)… another function involves the speaking of our language which revolves around the use of words, which can be ‘heard’ by other humans through what are called EARS ( One ear located on each side of the head).. Giving us the ability to communicate with each other [HEARING]… Like I’m doing with you, now…
Now there are many more things which we will talk about in the future my alien friends, as again I say, this lesson is only introductory in nature, and only begins to explain what it means to be a human being.. What will need to be addressed eventually is the spirituality which goes along with the physiology, and physical aspects of being a human being… Along these lines will come the study of things like good and evil…. which I am curious to learn, as you tell me about your species… As I wonder if good and evil even exists in your world… Also of interest will be…do you believe in higher powers than yourselves… Do you have what we call a God, or creator? All for now….littleraventhepoet.blog.. Sincerely, Frank Payton…
