Introduction

I came to Earth the conventional way, diving into and becoming the interplay between a sperm and egg, staying with and following that dance of unfolding until vaginal compression pushed me down the exit ramp to entry into the human world. 

It did not take long before I realized that I am an investigative reporter, a not-so-secret agent of the Life Force, transmitting Awareness of the subtlest nature at all times. I became, not an anthropologist, a studier of one subset of humans by another subset, but a humanologist, a studier of ALL varieties of the two-legged members of the Navel Tribe.

I learned sociology, the study of human society. I learned social psychology, the study of humans in groups. I learned psychology, the study of human consciousness. I earned advance degrees in these endeavors. I taught at universities, performed and published experimental studies, was recognized as a competent force in academia. 

That was not enough. I had to mingle. So I did. I held no job longer than five years, ranging from providing sacks of potatoes to five women cutting out potato eyes for seedlings in a basement with the radio blaring country-western to helping develop a criminal justice data system in South Dakota. I left each job at its completion or when I had learned all I could in my pursuit of humanology. 

In human societal terms, which teaches one to seek financial security, I was and am a fool. But as I said to myself so long ago, it is better to be a fool than aloof.
