I Am An Old Soul

Lost. Well, I'm Definantly That...

By: RememberMeForever

Written on May 24th, 2010

I'm thirteen. I get amazing grades. I used to strive for popularity, but then gave it up when I realized its pointless. All you end up with is hate and cruelty that you wield as a weapon to hide the hateful person you truly are. Now, I'm lost among all else. Sure, I never did fit in with the popular people. I've never quite fit in with anyone. I'm always too smart, or too nice. Sometimes its even too strange. I don' think I'm strange. I'm just a wandering soul among a sea of others. I push everyone away because they don't understand me. No one seems to. Is it so wrong to want someone to tell me that I'm not strange? But the fact is, a few months ago, a friend of mine told me that I seemed much older then I am. I have been told that often. I'm good with advice and helping others. I care about almost everyone I meet, except for those who don't deserve care. I don't know how you perceive me so far, but I hope your catching onto my story so far. I was intrigued by it, and looked it up. I felt in my heart that this was who I am. That, although I can't remember it, I had lived before. I just knew that this was who I am. I saw this website on the Google list, and signed in. I hope that you will understand where I'm coming from, and maybe even leave me a comment. I just want to know that there just might be a place that I can belong, but then again, don't we all?

well.. I read a lot of the threads here and still don't know my place or if I am an old soul.

I've always known that I was different than others around me from a young age due to the fact that there has been an unexplained sadness within me that I have always felt.

My life the last few years has pretty much torn me apart inside and left many question with no real answers. I manage ok and always have, have a responsable job, kids and a home and all that but have always felt something is missing.

About 15 years ago I had a relationship with a married woman that didn't last long but made me feel as if I forfitted my place in life and I deserve whatever comes, since then I have been kind of lost in my life.

what is my glich? Why can't I find true and lasting happiness.

You're (notice the correct usage?) definitely an old soul. Good luck finding a place in this world, considering how many new souls keep popping up at the current rate of procreation. One thing I realized that if you can't define yourself externally through a 'scene', then you pretty much have to make your own definition. I'm actually making a list of old soul symptoms, which I'm going to post as soon as I shift my train of thought from my other writing projects.

It took a lot of courage to throw yourself out there like that, so my hat goes off to you. Thanks for sharing your story and don't hold back because of whatever expectations you might have. We all get let down. Just learn to keep your chin up regardless, you'll walk away from things much happier.

Old souls have been working on their karma for many lifetimes. There are many levels of sourl journers.

Thanks, I am doing that, but its not encouraging to have absolutely no one understand you. But thank you very much!

you can go with what is right for you and not worry about being like everyone else. Set your own goals and go for them!
