INFJs can really lose themselves in relationships and turn everything on themselves. We have such extreme forgiveness and patience that it's shocking when we run out - when we need change and the patterns keep repeating. It's too easy for us to turn all the experiences on ourselves and feel shame. Shame for sharing and being open as this requires such trust for us. 

The Violet Writer https://substack.com/@thevioletwriterhttps://thevioletwriter.substack.com/p/displace-souls-and-surviving-beauty?r=73q1xqBy training, I am an observational scientist. I spend my life witnessing everyday human behaviour and trying to understand the hidden patterns. The invisible conditioning in plain view.Not unlike the violet spectrum: completely invisible to many.The part of the rainbow we simply assume to be there.Consider with me the unwritten rules we might blindly follow. The efforts that feel like mere survival, but are perhaps more. The assumptions we've never questioned. Once seen, it can't be unseen.My writing is about creating a peaceful, unconditional space for you. I hope you'll come by now and then.

The world is so disjointed for us now as creatives and ironically this book even though it wanted a massage of what is swallowed in progress and order is also a victim of the writer’s integrity … it’s not a teen book and it’s not accessible to the readers the earlier series it’s born from …. I shouldn’t have to re-read a book to get it … The Rose Field Philip Pullmanhttps://www.goodreads.com/book/show/228587642

The world feels like a soup you couldn’t possibly create an unconditioned reality in right now
