Me too, we actualy
think the same here.
I think you are using very far away from the truth words.
I don't see INFJs as a abnormality at all. I don't think INFJs are "weird" at all.
I just see INFJs as they are, or at least I try to. But I don't think INFJs are abnormalities, as I don't see humanity itself as a abnormality.
As for the curing aspect, if you mean a genetic kind of thing, no. But in a moral sense, yes, INFJs need to be cured. But then I think humanity itself needs to be moraly cured.
Muir, pardon me, but lyou make me laugh by your silly attempts to suggest that I don't know what it means to be a INFJ, because I am not one.
Let me tell you this, I am the essence of INFJ-ness. I've spent my life until now lead by my day-dreams like a dog in a leash, trained and subdued by my imaginations. On the other hand, I was also a thinker, a Ni kind of philosopher, a mixed up romanticist and rationalist. I was lonely, feeling lonely and alienated from the people and the world, unable to form real relationships with people, because of my self-centered character. Your typical "INFJ against the whole world". Oh, and I also had those delusions of specialness, just like almost every INFJ.
Don't tell me I am not INFJ. I am much more of a INFJ then you are now at your current years. I know what it means to be a INFJ, and I had enough of it!!!
Take it or leave it!
Well in a sense there are two dimensions to the situation....
Lets say that you are a certain frequency. Imagine yourself as a frequency like a radio channel
Then imagine your environment as a frequency also. You want your frequency to be sympathetic with your environment so that you are resonating harmoniously with your environment
But what if your frequency is not the same frequency as your environment? Then you have a problem
You have a number of options. For example you can try and change your frequency to match your environment or you can try and change your environment so that it matches your frequency or you can go somewhere else where you resonate with your environment
Many people opt for another otpion altogether which is to go to a doctor and say: ''doctor i am not resonating with my environment can you please give me some medication that will iron out my frequency?''
Its my opinion...and this should be clear from all of my posts here....that our current environment is a sick one that many people are not resonating with.
Now we can try and change ourselves to match it and many people do this by medicating or 'self medicating' but this is problematic as these methods can harm our physical and mental health and also we are effectively trying to deny a part of ourselves which can then re-assert itself in other ways which inevitably will be negative
Or we can try and change our environment.....but this is VERY DIFFICULT becuase our culture operates within a system which has become more and more homegenised with globalisation. The system is also very restrictive and narrows human behaviours into very narrow, well defined modes of behaviour and if a person does not conform to these they are then shunned by society or persecuted by the system
So the only way for that method to work is for LOTS OF PEOPLE to recognise the need for us to change our environment and to then work towards that. That process is going on at the moment around the world in many forms but in the meantime we are all still stuck in the system needing to operate in it whislt keeping our sanity!
So then we have the further option of trying to change aspects of our environment that are within our control to affect
I am trying to do a combination of these last two
What you seem to be advocating however is the first option of changing yourself to suit the system. But as krishnamurti said: there is nothing healthy about being well adjusted to a sick society
Imagine you are living in china under a very repressive government. You could change to suit that system and live a very repressed and oppressed life with a low quality of life but that is basically accepting a life of slavery.
What is really needed is for people to NOT change to try and fit in with the system. We need more and more people to resonate at their own frequency and live in that frequency and when they do that the system will crumble
So i do take objection to you suggesting we should just knuckle down into the system....because I know what the system is doing which is to build a totalitarian system (total control of EVERY aspect of our lives) like the chinese system
If we all knuckle under we are going to be led like cattle into a VERY HARSH ENVIRONMENT INDEED
Now is not the time to knuckle under....now is the time to stand up and assert yourself
