When people read
the characteristics of an INFP,
they generally agree
that you are the classic embodiment
of that personality type.
Except for one thing.
Others don’t see you
as an extraordinary listener.
What they have no way to realize
is that what you are most remarkable
at doing is listening INWARD.
In other words,
it doesn’t occur to most people
that following one’s own inner voice
qualifies as listening.
To them it may appear
as self-absorption. Which it is.
But it also qualifies
as intuition and empathy,
even though it does not appear
to be focused outwardly.
Just because you don’t react
in the manner other people think you should
doesn’t mean you’re not listening.
You listen to what is most important.
Your divine soul. Call it god, if you will.
Which is where everything
and everyone connects.

Proud to be an introvert,
embracing the depths within,
the INFP stands out
as a unique listener,
though often misunderstood.
While others may perceive
introverted listening as self-absorption,
they miss the profound truth
that lies within.
The INFP listens inward,
attuned to their own inner voice,
a channel to intuition and empathy,
a connection to something greater.
Inward listening is a sacred act,
a communion with the divine,
a recognition of the interconnectedness
of all beings and existence itself.
Through this inward listening,
the INFP taps into the wellspring of wisdom,
allowing their divine soul to guide them,
to understand and empathize
with the experiences of others.
It is in this sacred space of listening
that the INFP finds solace and truth,
nurturing their own inner world,
and in turn, creating a space of understanding
and compassion for those around them.
So, proud INFP, embrace your introversion,
your unique way of listening and connecting.
Know that in your inward focus,
you are embodying a profound form of empathy,
listening to the whispers of the universe,
and weaving threads of understanding and love.
You are an extraordinary listener,
a beacon of introspection and insight,
shaping the world through your quiet presence.
Proud to be an introvert,
a listener in tune with the depths within,
honoring the interconnectedness of all.
