That’s me!
You Are An INFP
The IdealistYou are creative with a great imagination, living in your own inner world.
Open minded and accepting, you strive for harmony in your important relationships.
It takes a long time for people to get to know you. You are hesitant to let people get close.
But once you care for someone, you do everything you can to help them grow and develop.
You would make an excellent writer, psychologist, or artist.
I guess the above fits. I am a writer and an artist, although maybe not very good at either.
I’m a little sad today. I graduated from a small class. Many of my friends’ parents have been in ill health, as have mine. My Dad has been ill for many years but has had a great improvement with his move back home. Some of my friends have had to deal with the passing of a parent. Today is Ron’s turn. Ron was a very popular classmate. He was my first schoolgirl crush (first grade). His father would come to every basketball game with his camera around his neck. He was very proud of his son. You could see the love. And Ron often would look to his dad for assurance. His father has been ill for a few years now and he passed away yesterday.
I can’t imagine what that is like and I don’t want to know. But I know I will someday. All this makes me sad.

just stopping by to wish you a very happy birthday!!
Don’t be sad…..make every day a celebration for family. This is the one thing that I have acquired, as I start to get a little older. I tell myself…..YES, one day it will happen, and I try to prepare myself for that mourning period, and pre-think of ways to lift my life back up again. That’s how I deal with the sadness…..hope you’re having a lovely weekend!
Your post made me sad too. My dad came down with cancer this past spring. I’m an only child of aging parents, so my wife and I moved to Tennessee to be closer to them. He’s stable right now, but I know I’ll have to deal with this at some point, and I don’t want to….
