If aliens arrived tomorrow, what’s the first thing you’d ask them?

If I ever got the chance to meet an alien, the first thing I would want to know about would be their world—how they live, how they see life, and what a good life means to them.

​I would want to know if there is something in their world that we could learn from and use to make our own world a little better.

​I would also ask them if their lives are as busy as ours. If they are, how do they manage it? Do they also spend most of their time rushing from one task to another, worrying about the future and trying to keep up with everything? Or have they found a better way to balance work, life, and simply being present?

​Most of all, I would want to know how they live a healthy, peaceful, and happy life.

​Maybe meeting someone from another world would not just teach us about them. Maybe it would help us look at our own world with a completely different perspective.”
