Heh maybe only the smart high IQ people who have been hurt and who have had time alone to think have these feelings. I have an IQ of 132 and ALOT of time alone mixed with enough pain to make me question...why.
I hope it IS soon and that it gets people to dream of a better way and then do it.
What a load of tosh.
I'm 38 years old, have a higher IQ than you, have lost multiple of my nearest and dearest to cancer, (including a partner) so have had plenty of time alone, and 'still' don't feel like I'm waiting for something.
Just saying..
Originally posted by Jeremiah65I think most of us know, there is something profoundly wrong with our world and the larger part of people. We are constantly absorbed with “stuff”…material wealth, possessions, physical beauty, sex…etc..etc…etc. Consumerism and materialism IS the religion of the world. Nearly all the word…even the poorest of the poor have been conditioned to believe that the accumulation of “stuff” is the key to happiness and success. That “things” are our purpose in life. “Stuff brings you happiness and without “stuff” you are a miserable person.
Wow, everyone. I'm honestly flabbergasted at this thread.
I think you'll find there are many of us out here.

Hello, ATS.
All my life I've had this feeling of.....waiting. For what? I do not know. I only know that it feels as if something's out there, and I'm at the mercy of its timeline.
I wish I could describe this waiting sensation better, but I don't know that I can.
So I go through my daily routine, waiting for this....something.....and all the while life passes by.
Is it a distraction? Or is my lifestyle distracting me from discovering what I'm waiting for?
I'm 38 years old, I feel like I'm 18, and yet my life is halfway over in all likelihood. And the waiting continues, on and on.
Do you feel it? Have you discovered what you're waiting for? Or, like me, do you still wait?
Any and all replies welcomed.
Because of this, I think those of us that are “expecting something” have known all along that this system…these farms of human labor and flesh…cannot continue…they will eventually come to a destructive end.

The world has become a house of cards. We all know that things cannot continue the way they have without very dire consequences down the road. We all know that change is coming but none of us knows how that change will manifest itself. Deers in the headlights is what we all are.
