Why? Because there is just so much to you. I scratch my head when I consider the wonderful nuances of you because, in some ways, you defy explanation.
You’re simply complicated. (Don’t you love a good oxymoron?) A jumble of emotions and passions roil inside you, yet you display yourself to us as unruffled and straightforward. You like to be alone, and yet you desire meaningful connections with others. You’re insightful and clever but often puzzled by your own complexity.
You’re just different than others. According to the Institute for Motivational Living, only seven to twenty percent of the population shares your slice.
One quality I admire about you (although there are many) is your ability to absorb vast amounts of information. The inner architecture of your mind can comprehend and process words, thoughts, and ideas with unimaginable depth. Your brain is a labyrinth of elaborate pathways and passages, allowing you to understand concepts that leave others in awe. People often say to you, “That’s brilliant. How did you think of that?”because you create new ways of doing things that blow our minds.
Psychologists, psychiatrists, and personality experts struggle to define you. Your personality type has been labeled “melancholy” (I’m sorry, it sounds so dark and depressing) and “analytical” (makes you sound more like a computer than a person). One author even selected a beaver out of all the animals in the world to describe you. It’s a giant rodent, for crying out loud.
Do you feel the limitations of these descriptors? I do. They miss the essence of who you are.
In a simple word, I think it’s this: beauty.
You long for beauty—not the superficial beauty featured in magazines or catalogs—but beauty in its truest, most pure and perfected form.
At the core of your being lies a deep appreciation for beauty—not the superficial beauty seen in magazines or catalogs, but beauty in its truest, most pure and perfected form. Beauty calls to you because it connects you to your true self.You feel at peace when you witness beauty or create something that embodies pure and perfect beauty. Your quest for beauty is a fundamental part of your identity.
