otherkin.... and me.

http://otherkin.net/wiki/Manual/BecauseHumansLostTheirWay

read this^. really READ it.

it really speaks to me. It makes perfect sense to me. and i often wish i were one of those spirits in human form. i really do.. how often do i wish i weren't human? that i could be free in nature....thaat humanity is not for me? but as much as i wish i could say i'm a non-human spirit trapped in a human body (an otherkin) i know it is wishful thinking.

Otherkin have physical and emotional signs that i just don't have...

but i agree with this article. what  is in bold is what i can relate to.

They will know that what makes other people happy does not make them happy, and that what makes them happy makes them happier than anyone else alive.

They will see things others cannot see, hear things others cannot hear, feel things others cannot feel, and know things others do not know.

They will laugh a great deal or cry a great deal or both.

They will love humans individually, but have a hard time with humanity as a whole that may occasionally approach loathing.

They will have a handful of very close friends, and often be very lonely.

They will be unhappiest when forced to act like a human and do the things that humans do, want the things that humans want, or when they are convinced that they actually are one.

They will be zealous, fanatical, and didactic about their beliefs. They will feel utterly confused.

They will have ecstatic visions and babble incoherently. They will be extremely articulate. They are prone to long periods of silence. They have no idea how to say what they really mean.

They will spend a lot of time with children and animals

They will become drunkards and dope fiends, organic gardeners, Essene soapmakers, carpenters, madmen, magicians, jugglers and clowns, lunatic physicists, painters and scribblers, travelers and wanderers.

They will dress in bright colors, frumpy sweaters, or all black.

They will smoke too much and drink too much. They will eat only macrobiotic foods. They will develop addictions to Mountain Dew.

They will often be accused of living in their own fantasy world.

They will make great lovers. Yeah, even the trolls.

They will spend too much time either making love or thinking about it.

They will speak to inanimate objects. (such as trees and plants...)

They will have much brighter eyes than everyone else.

They will expect their magic to work in this world and their love to heal, and they will be crushed by this world, and often they won't expect it.


It will come close to killing them.

They will visit the places where the connections still exist: the waterfalls, the mountains, the ocean, the forests. They will draw on all the power they have, and sometimes, sometimes, the magic will work. And everything will be wondrously easy.

There are also other parts of the article that talks about them (the fae and the otherkin) tat i feel i relate to in some way,shape, or form...
Its says that they miss us, they want to help us.... they send souls over TO help us... to help us hopeless humans to reconnect to ourself and to help us reconnect and save the earth.

My main goal in life is to help others. I want to inspire people. i want to inspire people to love themselves and to love others.

i wish i was an otherkin... but i know i'm not. i do believe the article. i do believe that Otherkin are real.... I wish i could be one. i'm not. and it makes me very sad...

Because if you look at the parts that i put in bold AND undelined...those are the parts that scream "MEE"... but all it goes to show is that i'm a human looking to escape.... not an othekin.
