The One

I too understand what you are feeling and Anne has nailed it on the head. We apparently have a 'job' and so now is our time to squelch our ego's, and learn as much as we can spiritually.

I don't think you need any help because God made you strong enough to help others instead of being helped. I am an empath too. I sense lots of negative energy around people around me, mostly they are sadness,anger,hopelessness,envy and others. I am trying to learn a way to shield myself from such negativity because it makes me too much unstable. You should be more happy that people come around you as for me I am a loner.

I'm glad to hear I am not the only one. For years I have felt I was important in a way that would help the world. I am an empath, and I have been feeling like something big is going to happen. My best guess is a shift of some sort. And I think that we the people that feel this coming, and feel like we were meant to help. We are the ones that will help guide the people. Help them understand. Now remember when I say shift, I do NOT mean the end of the world. Its more of an energy shift of some sort. But it is just a hunch. All we can do is learn how to use our abilities, and just be there to help when the time comes. And there are a lot more empaths out there that feel this coming. Hope this helps a bit.

I feel the same way about pretty much everything I also want to develop my ability more but I don't know how and it just gets me frustrated if you find any help on here it would be cool if you shared what you've found
Take care,
Omar

Help to others comes on numerous layers. There is financial, physical, emotional and spiritual. Where your role plays out in that depends on where you're at and what you can provide. Some people can provide one or all of those. Sometimes helping others first starts by helping ourselves. It's hard to nurture others if we've not nurtured ourselves. So while you don't know how to help yet, be sure to take care of yourself and learn spiritual disciplines to better be of assistance to others when that time comes. However, as a caution, if you can, refrain from the usual pit that some spiritualist or teachers fall into and that's being self righteous. Everyone has their special path and karma and it's not up for us to play guru vigilante and try and change everyone to be like "special me". Share with those who seek you out but don't fall into the ego's trap of trying to save the world from itself; that's impossible, impractical and sometimes the world needs a bit of chaos to realign itself.

I've no doubt something "big" is coming down the pike and what your role is, or any of our roles is, is yet to be determined. Let's start with ourselves to become as whole, loving, kind and good as we can and the universe will play out exactly as it should.

You are exactly where you need to be in this very moment. Trust that you will be delivered the lessons and tasks you need in order to develop at your own personal rate. Also know that you, like most everyone on this site is "alone" in terms of being surrounded by people who don't even know what the word empath is. That's something that with maturity you will disregard. We are not here to convert, only to help others with compassion and tolerance. The truly wise person doesn't go out to change his friends, but accepts them the way they are and leads by example.

Be well.
Anne
