We Are Not Alone

by Matt Johnson

Have you ever seen a UFO? I have lived in the Phoenix, Arizona metro area my entire adult life and I have seen them on 3 occasions. I saw one in the daytime and two at night. I also lived here during the famous “Phoenix lights” incident of 1997. I did not see those, but many people here did.

I used to work in the same building as the ex governor Fife Symington and I would see him on the elevator from time to time. One of my big regrets is not asking him what REALLY happened! Oh well.

A few years later, I saw my first one. I was living in Buckeye, Arizona at the time with my ex-wife and 3 young children. Buckeye is a town that is adjacent to Phoenix in Maricopa county. We were driving home at night past an empty field and we saw strange lights flying west over the mountain range to the south of us. We were driving west as well toward Miller Road where we lived. My kids and their mother kept pointing and getting excited. I could barely keep my eyes on the road.

I noticed other people had pulled over and were looking so we did the same. They were just slowly moving. These definitely were not normal aircraft. I eventually went home and watched it from my driveway until they disappeared.

Sometime later, while living at the same house in Buckeye, we saw UFOs again, but this time was far more dramatic. We lived next door to another young family and we had become great friends. My neighbor ran his own roadside service business out of his garage. Our kids would run around and play while he, myself and our wives would hang out and have beers, play darts, listen to music and work on cars. It was a fun time.

We were having one of these nights of fun when it happened again. It was dark outside. There were at least 4 to 6 adults there this time and at least 6 to 8 children. Another family from across the street had joined us that evening. We were all outside sitting around and suddenly WHOOSH. Three or more strange round objects of light went flying by overhead from north of us (where Luke Air Force Base is located) and heading south to the mountains.  We all let out a big WTF as a group and stood up and watched. Seconds later, several F-16 fighter jets flew by as well chasing the UFOs. All of them, UFOs and fighter jets, disappeared over the mountains that border south Phoenix and Buckeye.

We all looked at each other in amazement and we wondered what to do. What can you do? I had a very practical thought. My thinking was we should go inside and shut off the lights because we were in Buckeye, Arizona drinking cheap beer on the lawn. Whenever I would read of alien abductions, it was always some redneck, working class person in the middle of nowhere! We lived right on the edge of Buckeye by cotton fields. I figured we were definitely the stereotype (listening to classic rock, working on cars, drinking cheap beer by a cotton field) and I was not interested in being abducted or having my wife and kids abducted either! So we went straight to bed, lights out! My ex and I were dumbfounded and said our prayers.

A year or so later, we moved back to north Phoenix where I went to high school and got a house there. We saw a similar group of objects as we did the first time moving over the same mountains in the distance to the south of Phoenix (South Mountain), but this time it was in broad daylight. I had my ex and our 3 children with me. We just thought, wow, aliens must really dig Phoenix! I get it. I love my town. We have the best Mexican food in America. For that reason alone, I will never move!

It has been several years since those days. My kids are all adults now and I have since divorced and remarried. I took the course on UFOs at the University of Metaphysical Sciences and thought…oh come on. I want to believe what they are saying, but I am a guy who needs proof. The course was highly enjoyable and goes into some detail about different races of aliens and their intentions. They spoke of a Galactic Federation. I came away from it thinking…ok…whatever. Lets think about this. I have seen and experienced lots of strange and supernatural things. I know what UMS teaches actually exists or at least I know a lot of it does first hand. Because of that, I can reasonably believe the rest is true. I can keep an open mind.

AND, I have seen UFOs as I have just described. Then something wild happened! People with real credentials started spilling the beans in 2020. You can google this yourself when you have the time. 2020 was quite the year. The Pentagon released a video of objects that are clearly non-human being followed by US Navy pilots. Several people such as Senator Harry Reid made statements that there is much more information out there.

Then Haim Eshed, a highly respected Israeli former head of Israel’s Defense Ministry space directorate came out in December 2020 and said not only were UFOs real, but that was just the tip of the iceberg. He claims there is a Galactic Federation (just like the one UMS teaches about) and it is in cahoots with the U.S. and Israeli government. He also said President Trump and all former presidents totally know about it. According to him, they have mutual operations with us on Earth and Mars and that they have intervened a few times to stop us from launching a nuclear war with the Russians. They are not ready to let Earth become a member of the Galactic Federation because we are just too primitive and warlike.

Apparently, Earth is a rare find in the galaxy and we are jacking it up. They follow a “prime directive” like in Star Trek where they don’t interfere with primitive, evolving civilizations until they develop warp speed.

This got me excited and searching all over the Internet for information. I stumbled across another former government official, Paul Hellyer, who has been saying the same things as Eshed for years. He is a former Canadian Defense Minister.

I used to teach critical thinking for a living. I do not like conspiracy theories. In fact, I know of a few groups and historical events from the inside out that are prominently featured in conspiracy theories and I know those conspiracy theories to be utter nonsense. So I am NOT a fan of such things. However, not all conspiracy theories are wrong. Or at least they contain some truth worth investigating.

Because of my background, when an old friend who has been surfing the Internet gets real wide eyed and starts rambling about this or that conspiracy, I totally tune out. I also don’t put much stock in a lot of “researchers” who most of the time seem to be pulling their “facts” out of their large intestines and have no more credentials than my pizza delivery guy. No offense to him, he does a fantastic job, but only as it pertains to pizza.

HOWEVER, when government officials from the U.S., Israel and Canada start coming out and saying these things in mainstream media, I listen!  Plus, I have seen these objects with my own eyes with lots of other witnesses around me just like millions of other people across the world. Perhaps you have, too!

My reaction to all of this is one of relief and one of action. My relief comes from hearing that these vastly superior civilizations have our best interests at heart. These are not Klingons or the Sith. They sound more like a bunch of nice guy scientists from Portland. Possibly vegans. Thank the Force for that!

Also, it makes me REALLY want to work harder to improve myself and the world we live in. We humans need to step up our game. We need to get peaceful and stop hating each other over politics, religion and what not. We need to start believing in science and stop using plastic, fossil fuels and weapons of mass destruction. We need to stop wars period. We need to stop eating meat. We need to care for each other and this amazing, rare and gorgeous planet we live on.

We need to do this to survive and thrive, but also I want us to do all that because I want in the Galactic Federation! I want to go meet the Jedi Council! Until then, the University of Metaphysical Sciences is a pretty good version of the Jedi right here on Earth! Get signed up and start learning cool stuff! You are going to need it!

One more thing…the question was asked…why would this Galactic Federation be doing research side by side with humans on Earth and/or Mars (as Haim Eshed claims)?  I have a theory.

What if, despite all their technological advances, they still have not answered the big spiritual questions? Such as, where did God come from? What is the purpose of life? Or what came before the Universe? Why are we here?

And what if, despite ALL of our primitive human problems of war, pollution, crime, hate, etc, we have produced the greatest spiritual minds in the galaxy? I am talking about Buddha, Jesus and all the great writers, yogis, etc. Ok, sure, most humans are pretty average folk just trying to make a living and not having super deep thoughts, but what about us? By us, I mean we New Agey types that go all the way down the rabbit hole? Maybe people like us who have experienced that oneness and have come up with some pretty interesting answers…maybe philosophically and spiritually we have figured out things these highly, technologically advanced aliens have not figured out.

Maybe WE are the equivalent of the shamans in South America that materialistic Americans who are looking for answers go to see? In spite of our cell phones, Internet, science, technology, etc…we still know NOTHING spiritually compared to shamans living in the jungle.

Maybe we have figured it out and aliens are coming to learn from US. In return, hopefully they hook us up with some sweet spaceships and cleaner tech!

It is just a theory. Bet you never looked at it that way before! Maybe WE are the shamans the rest of the Universe wants to come learn from! Eh? Could be! Peace! Beam me up Scotty!
