I stopped my spaceship above the planet without a name.  I wondered how it came to be here.  It was not on the cosmic map.  And that got me thinking, how did I get here.  

Whose fault do I blame creation on, better yet, who gets my gratitude for the vastness of empty space, for energy becoming forms detectable by senses?   And how come there are senses?

I traveled much of the known universe, seen hundreds of galaxies, solar systems and been on many inhabited planets.  Beings I consider alien to me are everywhere except where they are not, just light years of empty space.  However...

Space isn’t empty.  It’s just that my senses aren’t sensitive enough.  My instruments detect life forms in empty space.  The life forms interact, have a life, do things, do things just like my level of physical life does things, and then I discovered there are even more life forms that were undetectable without my new instruments.  

Life forms exist in dimensions, time, cross each other, are in the same space, but never touch, never communicate, have totally different lives and realties.  Space is full.

Anyway, back to my question, “Who did all this marvelous and deadly work, and why?”  And of course, me and my spaceship are part of it all, made by the same contractor, creator, or inventor that did it all, so yeah, it did me too, and you.

Someone, something has a great imagination.  I fly through these unsee able worlds like they don’t exist, yet they do.  I pick them up on my Life Detector.  I never realized thoughts are things, are one of creation’s subtle forms, and imagination is somewhat less subtle, as are emotions.   All of them are energy in form, vibrating and oscillating, different speeds, distances, intervals, lengths, depths, just waves, like endless ocean waves, some more unique than others.  

It’s as if all creation is just imaginary, just thoughts, dreams made physical, dense beings made just physical enough I can sense them.  It’s all very confusing.

On my home planet, Earth, I am awed by the sun, sky, mountains, valley, greenery, rivers, ponds, lakes, oceans, and the endless variety of flying, crawling, creeping creatures in and on the earth, and of course, humans, and you know what?  all are energy vampires in some form or other, but humans are the best energy suckers, eaters, vampires that I know of.  Oh, and did you know that not knowing and wondering are energies?  Well they are.

Humans do things, lots of things, but the bottom line is, they do things to feel the energy, for stimulation, joy, happiness, bliss, peace, ecstasy, accomplishment, all kinds of excited energy.   If it wasn’t for feelings, like contentment, satisfaction, comfort,  thrills and chills, they might not do anything, which is why they who have learned to sit and feel bliss without doing anything, just sit and chill in delight.

It must have been a long process for energy to become intelligent enough to morph itself into forms and experience the vast variety of energy feelings it could experience.  Just think of the feelings of power, wealth, glory, vanity, pride, self righteousness, love, fondness, affection, warm-hardheartedness, kindliness, appreciation, gratitude, not to mention greed, persnickety,  finicky as shit, and of course, risk, fear, irritation, upset, anger and blood lust, especially blood lust.

The bloody feelings, the energy high that energy-forms experience, seem to fit the bill for why intelligent brain powered energy-forms weave their horrifically beautiful tapestry.  And since you and I do what we do for the same bloody reason, we’re just energy vampires too.
