Feeling extremely old

"OH Yeah Baby!"
Those future potentials are what I do to make my art. I play around with certain ideas and shapes until, though often it starts just from making a connection by talkin' to someone or being somewhere, and the vision of what "wants" to be done appears in my head.

Sometimes it's strong and obvious and other times it's a little vague but it's always what I gotta do. Possibly the heaviness and lightness, or aged feeling versus youthfullness, could be about how connected we are to that unfolding.

Sometimes its obvious that we want to expand our thinking on a subject and other times it is not. Those are my impressions naturally.

I like the Kryon and Wingmaker presentations about the nature of reality and the mission for Humanity. There is up to the minute channeled information from spirit on a wide range of subjects. This material also aligns with ancient teachings from many cultures.

The best answers for all things are found within the self. The best questions to consider are presented in groups like this. Channeled material is good. Personal discoveries are better. That is the only suggestion I wanted to make.

I just would like to know is there others out there who have always felt old? And I really mean always as even as a child? Is there anybody else here who has this feeling that you actually hope your life is the last life on earth because you just... I don't know... feel you're bored? That you have seen it all already? That you hope that after this life you could get back home, what ever that home is? I mean I'm definitely not saying that I wouldn't love to be alife and here living my life right now, or not taking my life as a gift because that it definitely is, but just... I kind of hope this is my last one. That during this life I'm able to do those things I feel I still need to do and after that I could leave and move on to something new...

Does this make any sense to anyone?

Hi. Yeah, I always felt old, even as a child. And I've hoped that this is my last life on earth -- not that I have problems with the Earth herself... but some of the PEOPLE! (Ye Gods ) Not so much that I usually feel bored (though it happens on occasion) more just exhausted, exasperated, tired. Though I know this isn't hoing to be my last life here *sigh*.

Been there, done that. In fact, despite not being considered "younger" quite like I was then; still there, still doing that.

Whoa, I used to use that exact same sentence to describe how I felt -- I still do on occasion when I feel like it's rough going.

Part of what I used to think was my problem is that I'm NOT a social creature. Now that I realize that's okay, it's all good. 'Course not everyone agrees with my sentiments. ;-)

I mean like I said earlier I love new technology. I always want to have the newest in technology and I sometimes have had this repeating dream in which I was living in a very futuristic looking city and it felt so familiar, like a home. I also often, when something new is invented, seem to think that hmmm finally, like that something should have been invented ages ago, like I already know how to use that... I also have some fears towards "modern", now existing inventions. I feel like our technology is partially outdated, even the newest one. For example cars. I absolutely refuse to drive because it is ridiculously dangerous. I have never understood why people are willing to drive voluntarily and in my head I have always had this clearest picture of a transportation system that is 100% safe, automatic, and no driving needed. That seems to be my normal, how things are, even though they aren't...

Yeah, that's totally possible. Especially because time is just an illusion anyway. Or you could be having left over feelings from someplace like Atlantis. Or you could be what Doreen Virtue calls "starpeople". Or you could be trans-dimensional, or... you get the point. yeah, for all I like old cars, cars are really dangerous and I never thought they were a good method of transportation.

I agree wholeheartedly, and I distrust technology immensely.

Going back to the OP the feelings of having been on this earth so long is what is termed an 'Old Soul'. Being an Old Soul isn't about brownie points as many would like to tell you it is, it merely means a Soul that has been round the block a few times. There are a few tell-tale signs and there are a few of these Old Souls on this thread. Feeling old is one of the signs. Old Souls also recognise their 'own'.

True that. :-) Though, technically all souls are the same age -- some just are more aware of the oldness and some have spent more time in other "realities" than this one.

Mercy.

Sure, it's a test. But you can't possibly fail because there is no right or wrong. Often it's you or the universe asking you if you are sure about who/what you are and what your intentions are. Sometimes it's reminding you that you can choose to live your Highest Truth or choose not to. Sometimes it's getting lost in the illusion of life or caught up in lower vibrations. Stay strong and centered in who you are. :-)

The thing that seems to be most helpful to me is to usually act like I'm four, except when I absolutely feel like I MUST act like I'm ninety-four.

WOW this is a fascinating subject! Thanks for sharing.

I've always felt the same as you. That I've lived, breathed, slept and it's just boring and old now. I feel spiritually ancient. I'm not sure if you have felt that you've been sent here to do something? I do feel like I've been asked to do something here on this earth. A few years ago I met a psychic wiccan and she told me that I was a spiritual master and teacher and that she was my student in a previous life. This was actually not something new, I've had a few other people tell me the same. Hopefully if i tell you what I've learnt you might find something. I kind of sense a sadness that you feel your life is worthless and you tired? However, believe me, that's far from the truth!

Here's what I've been told and experienced that has brought me much clarity. By no means am I anywhere close to where I feel I need to be but I got direction, purpose and more important understanding.

You first need to do a numerological reading of your name and date of birth, an indepth one. If you want I can do that for free, just pm me. Anyhow you might find you have a master number possibly master number 11. Elevens are known as old souls and is the first master numbers. Although being the first master number it's is possibly the most powerful number vibration because it draws spiritual power and essence directly from the divine sources. I have an 11 expression number and my name alone has an eleven vibration. You can also do a psychic reading. I've done one and I've been told that I feel lost and every thing seems old and boring because I have a lot of stagnant energy. I was told that my soul energy is transforming (in this life) into something higher, more meaningful than just everyday living and once a cross my dharmic path that stagnant energy will come into use. At this moment I've found my path and although things aren't as great as a wish, things are changing and for the first time I don't feel like I want to leave this existence anymore. Following your dharmic path is extremely tough but extremely spiritually rewarding. I believe you will find it just be patient, you will find it when you ready for it, and you have enough energy to pour into and fill the cup of your destiny.

Hope this helps.

Hi and thank you for your post. Is master number the same number than Life path number? If it is then sorry but I'm not 11 :) And yes I have a feeling I need to do something in this life too.

I have always felt extremely old. I have said many times through the years that this is my last life. I have yearned for home for as long as I can remember. The funny thing is though, the farther along I go in my spiritual journey, the more open my mind is to coming back again. It was actually a few days ago that the thought came to me, "It might be fun to come back a few more times". That was a light bulb moment for me because, I have never and I mean never, wanted to come back again. I believe my life is so hard because, it is my last. If it is, then I'm wonderfully happy. If not, I will make the best of the opportunity.
