Quote: As for my thoughts on what I think is missing. It's hard to describe, I've always been able to make friends easily but I've never got the feeling that I "fitted in", I have issues with modern society and maybe the crux of the problem lies somewhere in there. However as I cannot change society, I must alter my outlook and find something more within me to feel 'landed'.
Your welcome. Can relate a bit, growing up i always felt on the outside, like people thought i was strange, and sometimes i felt like an E.T or something. I use to focus on this in the past, but realized that this was blocking my growth. Part of my problem was my attitude towards others and myself.
Its ok to have the feeling of being different, nothing wrong with that, as long as it doesn't create a separation in your mind and heart with your brothers/sisters. That some are farther along the path is obvious and evident, but the attitude i've been trying to cultivate in the last few years is, "so what?" and "we're all in this crazy boat of life together."
Quote:It's noticable that lots of people loose their way and think of themselves as someone else, this is where I don't fall into this category of people. I feel 'different' but not 'special' in a mysterious or important way. I looked into the Indigo child phenomena, but I didn't have any of the traits. Maybe meditation will help me dicover 'Who' I am.
You're very right, and its heartening to hear you don't think of yourself as "special". That's one the problems i've had with the "indigo" theories which have been promoted a lot lately... They can make for some pretty powerful illusion traps, because alot of it is based on being different than others.
Lol anyways, a lot of us have had our grandiose moments but some are just a bit more self honest about it. The thing is, is that we are All Grand with the same Potential, though not always the same patterns.
Peace
