I use a different definition for lightworker, more like what Steve Pavlina uses. In fact I haven’t yet pinned down a definition for it and sorted through all my (occasionally conflicting) feelings on the matter but the word resonates with some part of me that seems to already know something.

It feels like… lightworker is the person who feels a calling, a desire to do something which heaven has guided them to do, which they feel stronger than even the desire to remain alive.

A person who sees through the illusion enough to know that there are terrible injustices in the world that need to be countered. Not angry (I can be angry, but I work on it) but neither accepting of the “normal” life.

Sort of a mix of awake – another word which seems to be more a feeling than anything you can define – and feeling a powerful calling for the benefit of all. Awake, powerful, and compassionate.

Someone who chooses not to perpetuate the old ways with their actions and attitudes in life, but knows that zero damage is an impossible goal: if he or she is going to be awake to the fact that there is a better way, and is going to face social resistence by choosing to create a new way for him or herself, he or she is going to go all the way and push through the social resistence even further and create something amazing.

Someone who, in line with the callings of his heart, and guided by God, chooses to go beyond.
