Great response. I really resonate with that.

Bibliophile, you've really done it. This is it. This is the ticket. We are content. We have spent lifetimes and lifetimes being royalty or buddhas or heads of large families. We have aquired all we desired and have quenched are desires through all we have aquired.

BUT

LATELY

We are ready for a huge shift in dimmensional reality, and our planet has NOT woken up. it is AMAZING that there are so many old souls here at this time, and we need to be HEARD NOW> There is no more time for meditation on the void or the Zen art of being one with everything but what is in front of us.

we need to BE LOUDLY and PROUDLY and around people who can not only HEAR us, but UNDERSTAND us. We need to speak LOUD CLEAR and with no looking back words of SIMPLICITY and TRUTH in Concise and perfect packages. QUICKLY, and in the perfect moments. We must be ELECTRICALLY CHARGED with excitement at every moment so that we may jump in with a sentence that will move mountains for at least one person at a time.
We need to devote time to writing novels which will effect MILLIONS at a time, because we have a population which can support EVERYONE in this tribe selling several different books to serveral million people and WAKING THEM NOW.

There is no more time for retreat into the forest. There is no more time for ashram devotion.
(OK, a bit extreme, all of these things are important, but there is a bigger picture for NOW and we can leave that stuff for those who have not had a chance before to do it well - as old souls, we have, over and over already)

People don't know what we're saying. Even when they smile and nod at our beauty, inside they just think it's "cool when you talk like that" you finally find out after 3 years of trying to teach thise people.
So, one step at a time.
One line at a time.
Not one person at a time.

Tell them what they need to hear in the moment, and take note if they continously don't heed or slander you for saying something they only 1/2 heard or never tried but failed anway. No more advice or conversations with them. Move on. Surround yourself instead with several wonderful old souls. Be loud. Be bright.

We have been in prayer and dedication for eons. Centuries upon centureies,
We grew up reading words like
Heirophant
and
Sutra
before we could even spell carrot.

We knew how to meditate on the void before we could politely ask our siblings for more space in our bed.

We are the ancients, and we cannot hide now.
We CAN play now.
We CAN not have to be so sweet now.
We CAN make a difference NOW

but we have to stop wasting our breath and start using it effectively.
Work on that.
What are your synchronicities with that?
I am finding mine and it is a powerful shift in conciousness.
I am cleaning my peoples and cleansing my realms so that I am heard.
So that my precious life is effective.

It's like it's all been different until now. And now, it's time to act quickly, and excitedly, and in Divinity.
Not allowing ourselves to be disrespected.
Not caring if we are, but not letting it happen again.
And not caring if we're silent but making sure when we speak we are heard.

I LOVE this post!!!! It makes sooooo much make sense for me.
I just joined this tribe right now, and it is like I've come home or something. Wow....yes, my parents do not understand... most especially my mom... who begs me all the time to make money. I SO do not care about making money, about being successful, what does it mean anyway?? I don't need that. I don't know what I need to be honest. That is a lot of my problem. I have just discovered in the past 2 years or so just what an "old soul" I am-- has anyone else had this experience-- it all coming to you at once?? Through a profound and intense spiritual experience that was simulatenously traumatic and life-changing and revealed to me my "oldness." Now I suddenly don't know what I want to do with my life... I once wanted to be a journalist... I actually cared about success and all that... now, I meander every now, not really having a purpose.
(Sorry to go on, I'm just really excited to meet people who understand.)
Best.

I like that point Cynicwanderer.
