"No other way is like yours"

"There is only one way and that is your way. There is only one salvation and that is your salvation. Why are you looking for help? Do you believe help will come from outside? What is to come will be created in you and from you. Hence look into yourself. Do not compare. Do not measure. No other way is like yours. All other ways deceive and tempt you. You must fulfill the way that is in you."

This part gets me every time - don't search for help from outside, search within yourself to find the answer. Feels like the near opposite of the way we're taught to deal with problems now (therapy, advice, googling everything). I'm not saying he's right, but there's something to sit with there.

Curious if anyone here has actually tried living by this - did it help, or did it just leave you more lost?

Anyone else truly passionate, wild and expressive?

I feel like infps are considered quiet, tranquil, calm, I try to be like that and I am at times, but not really that often. My beloved said I should have been an actress. I feel like I fit the r/enfp mould much more, and I've been visiting there. But I don't like being with people etc. I like reflection and inwardness all the time. But I'm fifty percent extrovert. I guess we are all deeply variegated and multifaceted.

Are yall good at building close relationships?

So Im INFP and i struggle with having relationships with people, definitely friendships. Is this an INFP thing or is this just me? I used to be talkative when i was 5 but then something happened that made me not be as talkative. Then in school, adults were telling me to be quiet. So now as an adult, I'm just quiet and it's hard for me to open up tbh. I also feel like i can't be myself because i believe if i did, everyone would hate me. Sometimes when i have spoke in the past, people have looked at me crazy(i guess i say weird things?) I also struggle with people trying to get close to me. I feel so uncomfortable with that. So i have 0 friends and not really close with any family tbh. Also when people try to get close, i push them away. Do yall have close relationships where it's easy for yall to open up?

Is it obvious I’m an Infp?

This Sunday I was so tired especially after July 4th working a long shift.

Its been a tough night ^^

Life has been tough recently. Got cheated on by the girl I thought was my soulmate. Living in Japan now for 10 weeks and while I have made lots of friends, I feel deeply isolated in so many ways. I yearn, desire and crave deep connection. To have conversations that transcend the simplicities of small talk; beyond the persona I put on.

Regardless, selfie sunday!!!

If anyone is in Tokyo and looking to be friends message me ><

Selfie Sunday EverQuest Legends

I only do this because I use to dislike being perceived. I figure it will help if i just accept others seeing me. So, here I am. Have a nice day if read this.
