I had this great feeling while reading the book and not sure how I got to reading it in the first place. I am pretty sure it's a self-help book, intensely spiritual and quite repetitive, but I guess there is some sort of positive energy to it and maybe it is showing me that I shouldn't be just logical all the time and make weird decisions and feel all the emotions as it adds and improves creativity. The author was really honest just putting ugly sides of herself in the book.

I got a bit sick because my family got sick for quite a long time and reading this was a blast for this period. I am happy with the last unicorn recommendation in the book and it gives me hope that there are people who appreciate science and feelings at the same time, who go out there to experience the unknown. But I am not exactly sure how to find those people exactly myself and I am afraid that the INFJ classification is too vague and wide and encomposes a large portion of the creatives, but even among those I don't feel particularly accepted. The online spaces I find don't feel promising to me, the irl spaces usually seem even more depressing.

A lot of artists I follow and my creative process is through feeling patterns and not following the conventional understanding of good. It feels very validating and an affirmation to read this. I like the way this type seems to appreaciate the duality and irrationality of life.

This made me and in general the infj content on youtube to want to put my experiences on a larger scale and contextualize them in a different way and actually put words to stuff. I am not sure if it is wacky, but it feels right for now and maybe in the future I will discover a more reliable system and as I continue learn about myself through various ways and learn about different approaches to psychology and self-empowerement I will write a future a little more full than I expected.
