Somwhereinbetween,
I am not giving advice on how to be an Indigo child to Liquid.
As for my friend, I am sure you talking about the 'Healing the wrong way topic" I am not up in arms lol
As for labels. I know they are self-limiting - but the truth is we are limited. We always will be as physical beings. We will be limited by circumstances, by our biology, by the laws of physics, by the laws of society. This is why we use labels. It gives us an identity.
A name is a label. A gender is a label. An age is a label. A profession is a label. A position is a label. As I said, you cannot escape labels. The label of an Indigo Child identifies us for the kind of people we are - the kind of ideologies and philosophies we espouse. We also use this label to meet like-minded people.
If you call yourself a realist - bang - there's a label. If you yourself an optimist - bang - theres a label again. You have a label yourself - "somewhere in between"
So I don't see why there should be any fuss at all over using labels. It is when people become their labels that they begin to limit themselves. That is, a blonde is dumb, therefore I should act dumb. I am Chinese, therefore I should eat noodles.
What about all those Americans labelling themselves as patriots on this forum? It is based on the same principles of becoming a label - I am a patriot, therefore I must defend America, my people and my government.
A label simply identifies which group you belong to. It does not say anything on you as a person and what kind of life you lead. As I said, an Indigo does not have to have lead a hard life, to be an Indigo. They could have been happy and popular. One shoe size does not fit all.

My advise would be to stop looking outside yourself for the answers. Know who you are and expand on that. If you find people that share your viewpoints then talk with them. You don't have to label yourself in order to be spiritual. No one is more special than another. No one is "chosen" that hasn't chosen themselves. In other words, it's a matter of taking responsibility for yourself and knowing yourself enough to be comfortable in your external expression. There is no "special" since that's just a ploy to play on the ego. Stand up and be counted or not. That's it.
If reading about "Indigos" helps you discover more of yourself then that is great. I wouldn't buy too much into it though because it looks like people are trying to make money from it. That represents possible corruption of the source of information (aka Wendy).
You don't need a label. You don't need a list. Know yourself. Be secure in that knowledge. And share of yourself when it's appropriate.
My opinion, of course.

And there you have it. LadyV says says she doesn't believe in Indigo's and therefore they simply cannot exist.
Demons are a psycological problem, not a spiritual one
Evil is a point of view. Nothing more.

However Liquid, why do I get the impression, that you're looking for a label simply to cover something rather than fill something.
Originally posted by Indigo_Child
I saw it if you were crying out loud for attention I get the feel that you are trying very hard to just fit in and be accepted. You are measuring yourself according to the views of others. This is why you are confused. There is a lot of insecurity I am feeling from you. That is not an Indigo trait.

Is an Indigo Truly immune to such emotions? I am really just curious i mean no offense by the question.

I don't really know what labels I am, I just know what I am.
I do feel this special connection with God, and I feel like I have unlocked some of my ESP abilities. I have always felt different than other people around me. As of now I don't really care if I am called Indigo or not.
A label is just a label to place certain people/things in certain categories.
If you want to call me an Indigo for my special abilities so be it.
Doesn't change the fact that I have those abilities. I really don't care being labeled Indigo or not. Even though I match it's description pretty well, I am just "me" and you are just "you"

Ok!!!!! There it is! four pages...but there it is! People want to "label" themselves to feel more than others....which isn't right IMHO....

We "all" fit your title.....but not your timeline...who made up this name and for what reason? Why is there a name for it all? Why do you think it has have some silly name? The world is full of people with these "abilities/gifts" from all walks of life and all ages past and present...so why a name "now"?
