How old are you????

I felt compelled to write my second post due to the number of members on this of site that seem to be of a grand old age, or so they say. This is loosely connected with my first post in relation to expressing oneself as something or someone their not and feeling the need to do so, this is not a personnel attack on any one member and for this post I have reframed from naming members in question. As I have quoted before I tend to listen more then talk and take the time required to try and understand people and though doing this I have had the opportunity to meet certain people and observe others from a distance. During my time here I have selected only a few members as friends and discuss private matters with these individuals, but while searching the site I have come across other members profiles and other members discussions and I seem to find an increasing number of individuals that are old in range from a couple of hundred years to 15’000 years and even 7.00000 what ever that is supposed to be?. I do not wish to get in a discussion about opinions I simply what to clarify some points and give my opinion to some of these clams, first off if an individual has survived for at least 100 years I would believe that person would be well educated, so would at least be able to spell and communicate in a modern day language (possibility many) that could be understood. I confess I do prefer to write and speak in an old form of Latin and I have used this on many occasions including initial discussions with new individuals but shortly after I always revert to a more recent format recognised and understood by both parties. Any force, entity, belief or idea that’s takes physical form and exists on this plain must be able to survive in the world we know today, but the world we know today was very different in the past. One individual claims to be 15’000 years old!! Do you have any idea what has happened in the last 15’000 years? Entire plates have moved, counties been formed, climate and temperate has changed, entire species have been wiped out and new ones formed. The success rate to survive at that rate would be very low in deed, you would have to contend with food shortage (depending on your energy source) if it was humans it would be very differcult the estimated population of the world in the 7th millennium was 5 million and they would have been scatted and their were no cars or public transport back then! Temperate and climate change, hostile environments, predators, natural disasters, and that’s only in the beginning later on severe temperate change, wars, disease, hostile interaction the list is very long. Even an individual with a competitive edge would still find it very differcult (if not impossible) to survive until now. Also another member who had also been alive (supposedly) for 15’000 years favourite film/book/text was Twilight! I mean in a human life span one can be subject to beautiful moments and unforgettable events that will touch the soul and forever be remembered, and I’m sure if you’ve been around 15’000 years I know (not think) you would prefer and could name many other notable works of art. For humans time is the most precious object you have, people can give you money or status, love or hate but your time given is priceless use every day to better yourself and always embrace life in your own way in what ever makes you happy, it is never to late to make your glory and show the world your true self, as one general once said ‘one crowed hour of glory is worth a lifetime with no name’.

I see how you are very blunt, but at the same time you are being realistic.
I claim to be 17, no older or younger. I really do not know how old my soul is, since I've yet to fully awaken, and gain my memories back.
Quite frankly people who say that they are 15,000 years old, then I would think that they would not be on this site.
About Twilight, I think it is a dead give away when someone claims that they like Twilight, and claims to be a vampire over 100, that they are a RPer.
*Sigh* You took all of the words out of my mouth. I hope this discussion gets featured!; ▶ Reply to This

But Im 16, I only remember past lives back to the 1600s and for those I was human, which isn't surprising (and I had to have those memories sparked by a psychic relative)
I don't know why people think it's such a glorious thing to say "yeah Im like 3000" or something...I kinda like the dieing cycle personally; ▶ Reply to This

Anything and everything may look on in awe and wish to aspire to great heights (amazing feats) but the only person who can make that possible in yourself, realising this is the biggest obstacle of all.; ▶ Reply to This

Permalink Reply by Jim on April 21, 2009 at 8:59pm: I did not discuss the age of souls, I was just stating the obvious that many posters on this site do not represent the age they state. I’m all for this ’My soul is old’ statement, but what I EXPECT is sufficient knowledge and experience to back it up. And I don’t wanna hear I’m 500 years old but I cant remember before, knowledge is power and your age is representative of that.; ▶ Reply to This
