It took me until 44 years of age to awaken. I knew something was up many years ago, but at first I ignored it. When I could no longer ignore it, I fought it. When I no longer could fight it, I accepted it.
I'd like to say that you are lucky to awaken so early in life, but it is meant to be, and personally, I don't think it is more difficult for a young person to awaken. Whether 1 or 100, coming out of the slumber which is existing isn't easy. With so few years left until the harvest, many are awakening, young and old. There is no current number of wanderers given, but I would suspect it to be 100 million or greater. You being here is an indicator of being a wanderer.
Therefore, you have brought your special gifts to earth, and being yourself is the greatest of them. Go forth and bring light and love into others lives
Thank you for your welcome.

I am open to that statement that it is not more difficult for a young person to awaken. I'm not attached to anything I've said about young people and difficulty. I've just been speaking from my experience.

I'm not exactly sure what a "wanderer" is. I haven't read all of the Ra material, not yet anyway. (There is a lot of it!) I came across a link to it while clicking through Buddhist blogs, and here I am. I know one thing. I am a human being, and I am awake. What you have said about special gifts to earth resonates with me, and I am glad we are each able to make manifest our unique gifts and talents. Sometimes I feel as though I'm some sort of angel, floating both through and above the suffering of this world, extending my hands down gently when the time is right to caress that suffering, turning it into light and natural realized beauty.
