Quote Title: Dr Seuss
Why Fit In When You Were Born To Stand Out?
You are the New Energy Generation
Born to Now truly stand out
Not limited to the old ways
You’re here to bring change about
Gone are the dark days of the past
We’re in the New days of Light
You’re here to enhance the world
With your radiance, ever-so bright
The old ways take time to let go
Older generations don’t like change
But you are here on a mission
Which to oldies may seem strange
You sense more than they do
You may have dimensional sight
Fitting into Earth’s old systems
To you, will never feel right
For you have so much to teach
To all here, especially the old
Your Presence is so very different
Not fitting their old energy mould
They may even give you labels
Uncontrollable, Autism, ADHD
Star, Indigo, Crystal, Rainbow
So many New Rays of humanity
You might find linear life challenging
If you’re aware of so much more
Alternative dimensions to play in
Spiritual truths known at your core
Some of you may have chosen
To live a problematic, difficult start
Knowing experience will expand
Your future Awareness of Heart
Going through a baffling childhood
Your focus later, may bring change
To where it is desperately needed
Many basics need to re-arrange
Be strong in your Inner-Knowing
Early on, most will want you to fit-in
You chose to born at this important time
Starting in their energy, you can begin
To be a Trail-Blazer of the New
Always questioning their old ways
Many old energy minds will be opened
As you go through all of your days
You will help to bring changes
To all the old systems of Earth
It’s why you came here, Now
To shine your truly, Divine Worth
Education, politics, science
So much needs an overhaul
Bide your time, ‘raising’ your family
While they still see you as small
It may take many years to know
Where you are going to be
Of service to the world, use your
Intuition to guide you clearly
Always do your best to avoid
The negative vibes all around
Surrounding yourself in The Light
Inner-Positivity is naturally found
Your parents and other family, all
Love you, but some can’t express
The depth of their true feelings
Old energies made a bit of a mess!
Know you are always Loved
No matter, or what you ever do
God, the Angels, your Guides
Eternally, Unconditionally Love you
You know you are of The Love
You know you are of The Light
You know your very Presence
Will eventually bring things right
You were not born to fit in
You were born to stand out
Be proud of who you are
Let your Divine Presence SHOUT!

About This Poem
This Dr Seuss quote has been one of my favourties for a number of years, especially as it was chosen by some of my grandchildren who were being home-schooled as their motto. So, it has been on my list to use for a poem quote for a long time.
My ten grandchildren range in age from 21 to 4. In just about every one of them I see how they are of the New Energy of Earth. Several struggle with fitting in. and have issues that I now understand come from being born with a Higher Vibrational energy system that finds it difficult to live in an older energy world. So many of them are very sensitive to the energies around them, and one in particular, who showed an amazingly advanced mind at a very young age, is now in the process of getting his ‘label’ after being expelled from school at the grand old age of 4!
I started this poem in early November, but did the final tweak yesterday and as is happening so much lately Divine Timing is so evident. Sitting at my computer today, thinking about which poem to add, I noticed a new video from Amanda Ellis and watched that first. – If you are a frequent reader of my posts then you’ll maybe know that since ‘finding’ Amanda (at the end of last year) I have been amazed at all of the synchronicity going on with her teachings and videos.
In todays video almost straight away she speaks of people feeling they do not fit in with the world, then she goes on to talk of Crystal children and how she is being called to do something for them. So much of what she said resonated with this poem, so I had no doubt which one to add today!
I have many more Spiritual Poems For Children & a few Spiritual Nursery Rhymes, there are also many Quote Poems from various authors and sources.

Update 4th June 2023 – The Great Awakening
This poem is obviously one written about The Great Awakening, speaking of the old compared to the new energies in which our children are being born into, and how, many children are not fitting in to how things have previously been.
However, it is not just the most recent generation who came to change the old ways. Speaking of my own experience, (which is the only one I can really know of) I have always felt it difficult to fit in with society’s ways. As a young child I was extremely shy and couldn’t be taken out without me erupting into screaming tantrums, this stopped the day I started school (the tantrums, not the shyness) my mother believes it was because my mind was not occupied enough at home and I needed to be learning. I think this could be part of it, but I also feel that part of my problem was not feeling safe ‘out there,’ especially as she says I would continually cry when put outside in my pram for naptime.
I really enjoyed my first primary school, it was in small village and only had 3 classes with about 16 to 20 children in each one. However, on moving house and going to a different primary with a much larger class and total pupil size it definitely affected my confidence. Aged 11 and going to secondary school (even bigger) my questioning of the school system began as it wasn’t long before I realised that it was the teacher that really made a difference to how well you learned.
Jumping ahead to my children’s schooling, before they started school (which was the term after their 5th birthday at that time) I would spend lots of time doing things with them, such as puzzles, games, art, reading etc.. however, once they started school I soon noticed that their attention span was greatly reduced. Over the following few years I grew increasingly unhappy with the school system so I started to investigate home-schooling, in those days (early 90’s) this was not an easy task with no internet access. Eventually (on moving house) I just didn’t register my two youngest in a new school, the oldest had left school and the next had one year left, hated school and was not at all academic. He already worked daily after school, at weekends and holidays, so he simply carried on working. The youngest was 12 and so we home-schooled, but she also got herself a part-time job working at a local stables which she loved. The change in her character and confidence was wonderful. Interestingly, she chose to home-school her four children right from the start. If I could go back, I would definitely home-school and not send my children to be programmed into the system. I could go on about all of the harms done in schooling, but that would be a very long list!
Another area that I eventually realised I did not fit in with was working the 9-5, especially when it came to working for large corporations. I have worked at various things over the years and apart from enjoying working for my family’s business, I am much happier being self-employed. One job I only stuck with for one week was in the NHS, I thought I would love working in a hospital but I couldn’t believe the negativity and attitude from other staff, it was too much for me so I left.
Talking of the NHS, this is another area where I eventually realised I don’t fit in! My first realisation that doctors don’t always know/do the ‘right’ thing was when I went to my doctors because of pain in my stomach. Upon examination he told me I was about four or five months pregnant and there-and-then removed the coil I had fitted a few months before (after the birth of my third child). It wasn’t till later that I thought surely he should not have done that before I had a scan (which he booked for a few weeks later). It turned out that I wasn’t pregnant, but had a huge ovarian cyst & abscess! This began my questioning of the medical system leading to my now not seeing a doctor for 14 years.
Once I began walking my Spiritual Path I had a ‘feeling’ that I am here to do ‘something’ different than fitting in with ‘normal.’ Over my life there have been three pieces of writing that have had a definite impact in shaping my life. The first I received as a child from a penfriend, it was titled ‘Diary Of An Unborn Child’ and was basically about abortion. Reading this gave me a strong conviction to never have an abortion, which I know I would have been very heavily pushed towards by my parents when I became pregnant at seventeen, however, because they knew of my opinion on the matter, it was only mentioned once as an option. Being a mother at an early age was definitely my true path. The second ‘piece’ was two sympathy poems given to me at the funeral of my uncle, these set me on my Spiritual Path (My Catalyst tells the story). The third was something I came across in the late 90’s on the internet, I don’t know who wrote it but it really struck me and stayed with me. It was many years later that I came across the term ‘LightWorker’ and also realised that I am one.
Here is that piece that I now see so clearly is talking about The Great Awakening!
Dear Ones,
You are the light, the light is in you. When you enter a dark room, you don’t grope around trying, in the dark, to discover the dimensions of the room and what it contains. Of course, you turn on the light. Life is a little like the dark room. You can spend a tremendous amount of time groping around in the dark, trying to find your way around it, stumbling over objects, getting knocks and bruises. Why not switch on the light, so you can see what the room is like, and what there is to do in it?
The light shines on you. The light is in you. At first, you may need to use the light switch, but you can learn to switch on the light in yourself. Then you shine. When you shine, other people who are fumbling around in the dark can find comfort in you. They can see their way more clearly. Some may realise that they, too, have their own inner light that they can switch on. So helping yourself in life by lighting up your light is a help to others as well.
To keep you light burning bright, you need to connect with the current. The current is also in you, but it connects you with the power station. In life, the power station is truly the whole of creation itself, buzzing with energy, humming with vibration. As you make the connection, so you light lights up. All the different lights are powered by the same current which flows in you, around you, above you and below you. The current has and gives meaning to all the lights. What would be the point of a light without energy to make it glow?
A life without light is really a chancy affair. One moment your hand may feel something nice. The next, you knock yourself against a sharp object and get hurt. There may be lots of maps and ideas for getting around in the dark, but basically none of them are much use, because it is impossible to orient. Actually it is much easier to put the light on, but lots of you never bother to think about that. Some of you are even afraid of what you might see. In fact, the room of life is a very wonderful one, a treasure house of beauty and variety. With the aid of the light in you, you can have a wonderful time in it. It is also a very big room. There a long walks to take, steep places to climb. But with the aid of the light you will see that it is worth taking the walks, worth making the efforts to climb, because the results are beautiful indeed.
You are the Light of the world. The time has come when everyone is going to discover that they have a light in them, and to learn how to switch it on. When a light is to shine, of course the connections need to be made. Some workmen will come along who know how to connect things up, so that all the lights can work at once. You are a little like the workmen, preparing the place for lightning up time.
Now it is the Earth that is going to be the place where the lighting up takes place; so you are the workmen preparing the people of Earth for the switch on. Humanity has spent enough time experiencing what it is like to go blundering around in the dark; now the wiring up for the big switch on is taking place. In order to see, to be able to do the work, you first need to connect yourself to the source of energy.
When the lights go on, a lot of people are going to be dazzled. They will try to find dark corners to hide in. But when the big switch on occurs, everybody will have to get used to the light, and a lot of people will need help. This is also your role. You are not only fixing up the light, but you are going to help people get used to it, too. That is the after-sales service.
Do not be afraid, but do light up the light in yourselves and make it burn more strongly. I am with you, supporting you, blessing you. I am the power station, but I am also the light in you. In fact I am the whole show. It pays to get closer to Me. People call Me many names, and I am happy with all of them, if they want to find the light.
Have Trust, Confidence. Learn To See. Be Blessed.
Namaste
