I joined Evolver in August and I am kind of unsure what to do now.
I’m not having the experience I expected to have. I am not gaining the answers to any of my questions. So I am just making an attempt to put myself out there.
Here is a link that expresses everything I am feeling right now:

If you don’t want to read the post.
In a nutshell: If I don’t find like mined people who I can connect with I am going to spiritually self destruct.
Is there some kind of support group or meeting for people in my current state of being? Like rehab for the soul?
All I see or meetings for events and such cost a hundred dollars or more or have an age / gender requirement.
You can send me a message or reply to this post.
Thanks.

you sound very wise
— Nov 07, 2009
you are very wise.
I am not sure why you might be feeling this way but perhaps the stress of the city has compunded some traumatic event or relationship gone wrong.
It's important to do all the simple things before you race ahead of yourself: eat healthy, exercise, and write, write, be creative with your energy...
Use your divine alchemical powers.
Do not self-destruct. You are a strong-willed individual and we need more people like you in this world.
Know that you are loved. Love and gratitude. Gratitude. Appreciate the little things.
As a healer, always reconnect with the sheer wonder, the beauty, and imagination of the great spirit.
Urgency
OVER
ECSTASY.
ECSTASY is the way. punch the air, breathe it in as deeply as you can and do that and keep doing it, and do it again.
I-N-F-I-N-I-T-E.
"Magick is the art of changing consciousness at will." ;)
That's all I have at the moment. I have no group to suggest for you.
If you live in Brooklyn, as do I, I suggest you go out to prospect park, sit in nature, and write about your feelings, be tenacious. Let it out.
And bring your hat and glove bc you may get cold.
:)
Thanks for the advice.

Sadly I am someone who does better with others around. I guess the point I am trying to stress is doing all this alone is not working. Doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result is not a smart way of going about things.
So I am trying to try something else. If I was with another person or group of people my time and energy would be used in a more productive manner then a destructive one. Plus I may even get my desired result.
It seems like we are all to scattered and to far apart from each other to make something like this happen.
I'm not wise.
I'm not strong willed.
I'm lost, alone, and fear for my soul.
Don't forget that life is

Don't forget that life is not the destination, but the journey. You could maybe stop looking for sanctuary - often if we look too hard for something, we miss it.
Lost at sea
— Nov 10, 2009
There was a man drowning in the middle of the ocean.
He prayed to god as he was drowning: Please Save Me.
Right after a Life Preserver floats by, and the man does not take it.
The man prays to god once more: Please Save Me.
An empty row boat with two ores passes by. The man drowning sees it and lets it pass by.
The man prays to god another time: Please Save Me.
A Yacht passes by and the rejects the help given by it’s crew.
The man prays to god for the last time: Please Save Me.
A helicopter fly’s by and drops a ladder and the drowning man will not take it.
Soon after then man drowns and his body goes to the bottom of the sea.
At the gates of heaven the mad ask’s god: Why did you not save me?
God: Who did you think sent the life preserver, row boat, yacht and helicopter?
******
I don’t want to be like the drowning man asking and looking for help but never taking it. Only because the help did not look like it came from god. If I stop looking how can I find it?

Right before I read your post ....

I read another that was referencing 6.8 billion people on this planet ... http://www.6billionothers.org/index.php
Yet I constantly find this non-connect theme common with many, many people ...
ironic ...
Maybe we are already connected ... already connected spiritually ... here, it's time to connect physically ... like spirit is the by-product of groovy physical connects with the other 6.8 billion.
You say you've already walked this path many times ... try taking a left or right ... stop helping others ... help yourself for a while ... just for a while ... from beginning to end.
i feel
— Jan 28, 2010
that in the couple years to come you wont feel alone. Right now i think a lot of people are thinking the same way but for some reason we are not connecting offline. i really believe that our consciousness is changing and that people are waking up everywhere. people are becoming more spiritual than ever. i think that that is the one thing that we can have and that no one can take away. a few years ago i felt the same way but now that ive grown older ( i mean im only 19) i have realized that kids the same age as me are actually thinking the same way about psychedelics, freedom, spirituality and the rights of people. for some reason i think i have faith in planetary alignments. when uranus and pluto align the people in our generation will be old enough to live on there own (21-25) and think for there selves all the way. it's a matter of time before good ol big brother in america slips up and the people revolt against something that they believe is out right stupid and ignorant. we will physically come together in a few years. Im not the only one that feels this i think everyone on here does. and that is definitely a great start.
I feel you

I am kinda in the same boat as you are. I have just recently joined evolver with the hope of finding ways to do some more productive then just talking about stuff. I am like a baby in all of this (spiritually, emotionally) I was hoping for something more concrete in regards to regionals and projects or things that would help feed my spiritual process. Yes I am selfish I want to help others and earth so that I can feel like I've done something good (totally selfish). I hope you find why you are looking for and if you do give me a shout lol cause i am looking for it to. Realize although we are not together physically we are together on this path an I am just as lost as you. Looking for something bigger than myself to give me substance. stay strong and enjoy this fight we call life. Like my dad says to me "the juice is worth the squeeze". You are def not alone in this. Before the butterfly comes the cacoon.
