• SilverRavenKat raised an interesting question in her comment on yesterday’s post. (BTW, Happy b-day Kat!)

  
  

  She said, “Why is it that so many people do go through some ‘suicide phase’? Is this a part of our dark night of the soul that eventually illuminates some aspect of life’s journey? Some people are successful with the suicide and others choose not to take the path. I use “successful” only to mean that the thought process lead to the actual act.”

  
  

  Why do so many go through such a phase? There may be a variety of contributing factors but much of it among children/teens can be attributed to one phenomena.

  
  

  Some people accept everything that comes their way, accept everything the “authorities” tell them as truth. They never question and so are never bothered by the lies and inequities we all face everyday. From a very young age, we are told that the world works in one way. But as we grow older, we observe that it does not in fact work as we have been told. The stronger our sense of right and wrong, the more this realization will affect us.

  
  

  Some people shrug and go about their business and some embrace the lies and become part of what is wrong with the world. Some people, the ones who become suicidal, cannot accept the world as it has been revealed to them.

  
  

  There is no argument that the type of children being incarnated today is different than the kind being born fifty or sixty years ago. No matter what they are called -Starseeds, Starpeople, Walk-ins, Lightworkers, Indigo Children, Otherkin , etc- there are more of them today than there has been in the past.

  
  

  I did a search and found this article for you all in addition to the one I linked the Otherkin to. There’s a pretty good chance I fit into this group somewhere. Eleven of the thirteen physical characteristics listed for Starseeds apply to me. A lot of the qualities described in the Otherkin article also applies to me. Read the articles and you may find out you’re in there too. I’d go into more detail about my own characteristics, but I already make these humungous posts. I don’t want to bore you all with the details. Maybe I’ll post more on the subject tomorrow.

  
  

  Suffice it to say, these are the type of people who are most prone to suicide. They are more sensative, more perceptive, and more easily injured by the injustices and lies told daily by the people who run the world. Because the younger generations are made up of these incarnations, suicides among children and teens has been steadily rising for as many years as the number of their type of births have been rising.

  
  

  They have other motivations than money or popularity and so they don’t fit into regular society. Those that survive (that don’t commit suicide) become embittered and may acquire escapist addictions. I don’t do drugs or drink, but you can’t describe my reading, writing, or internet usage as anything other than an escapist addiction.

  
  

  Those who attempt suicide are simply not prepared to deal with the world as it is. Unless they find a reason to continue or some kind of motivation, they usually succeed in killing themselves. Death is the ultimate escape from life. Some of us just cope by seeking the little escapes.
