Awww, GreenCoyote you're awesome.
Do you find, like me, that by helping others to smile, you start to smile yourself?![]()
haha..........
yes totally.
when everyone is happy I can get very very happy and I just kind of continue it and become peacemaker
when I am happiest my foresight is wonderfully accurate and I can secretly stomp out the bad vibes...
GreenCoyote - I was having my weekly sit down and chill with my INFJ girl friend with Tea last Thursday. I realize now that I have broken through some barriers with her, and I am now talking more openly about my issues, and we work together on some areas. I am slightly uncomfortable with this, because she is likely doing the INFJ thing; where she is focusing the discussion on me, she speaks less of herself - but also, I told her I want to have the chance too to help her, as she is helping me! and I realized, I needed to make her smile too, that would make me happier. She said that I am helping her in many ways also, I suppose she introspects on our discussions throughout the week, until we meet again. We do lots of challenges together, etc. and make intense discussions over Tea. I just thought to write - because this statement: 'We don't need to smile, we need YOU to smile' seems very true.
I find it really hard to smile for photos also. School photos always come out and I thought I smiled and it turns out I did not, then some years I will show a smile in the photos. I guess it all depends on the environment of the photo takeing like you said. I can not just produce a good looking smile it has to come from other people smiling and having fun.
I forget who uses this OP as their Sig here on PerC. Every time I see the quote it makes me smile.
So kudos to your Green for continuously making me SMILE and to whom ever used this as their Sig
When I remember or see it again I'll be back to give you props.
That is really true. I was walking around yesterday and I definitely wasn't smiling but I saw a few people that were genuinely smiling and having a good time and that was enough to make me warm inside.
Do all INFJ's do this? I thought I was psychotic for a while because when I got into adulthood and started having longer and longer associations with a wider array of people, [I]so many people[I] were shocked that I would remember the entirety of our previous conversations, file them away, and use those conversations for references. They never understood that I would listen intensely in conversations to what people said and then think about those contributions and ponder the reality of my own reactions.
Do you find yourself being careful about voicing your knee-jerk opinions on anything until you've given it serious thought, as well?
Just curious.
