Personality Type (nainggit kay ronald)

Dreamy Idealist (DI)

(Just visiting? Take the free personality test and determine your iPersonic type!)

Dreamy Idealists are very cautious and therefore often appear shy and reserved to others. They share their rich emotional life and their passionate convictions with very few people. But one would be very much mistaken to judge them to be cool and reserved. They have a pronounced inner system of values and clear, honourable principles for which they are willing to sacrifice a great deal. Joan of Arc or Sir Galahad would have been good examples of this personality type. Dreamy Idealists are always at great pains to improve the world. They can be very considerate towards others and do a lot to support them and stand up for them. They are interested in their fellow beings, attentive and generous towards them. Once their enthusiasm for an issue or person is aroused, they can become tireless fighters.

For Dreamy Idealists, practical things are not really so important. They only busy themselves with mundane everyday demands when absolutely necessary. They tend to live according to the motto “the genius controls the chaos” - which is normally the case so that they often have a very successful academic career. They are less interested in details; they prefer to look at something as a whole. This means that they still have a good overview even when things start to become hectic. However, as a result, it can occasionally happen that Dreamy Idealists overlook something important. As they are very peace-loving, they tend not to openly show their dissatisfaction or annoyance but to bottle it up. Assertiveness is not one of their strong points; they hate conflicts and competition. Dreamy Idealists prefer to motivate others with their amicable and enthusiastic nature. Whoever has them as superior will never have to complain about not being given enough praise.

As at work, Dreamy Idealists are helpful and loyal friends and partners, persons of integrity. Obligations are absolutely sacred to them. The feelings of others are important to them and they love making other people happy. They are satisfied with just a small circle of friends; their need for social contact is not very marked as they also need a lot of time to themselves. Superfluous small talk is not their thing. If one wishes to be friends with them or have a relationship with them, one would have to share their world of thought and be willing to participate in profound discussions. If you manage that you will be rewarded with an exceptionally intensive, rich partnership. Due to their high demands on themselves and others, this personality type tends however to sometimes overload the relationship with romantic and idealistic ideas to such an extent that the partner feels overtaxed or inferior. Dreamy Idealists do not fall in love head over heels but when they do fall in love they want this to be a great, eternal love.

post-impression storytelling

I was ready to meet her head on but she simply wouldn’t respond. All she did was sidestep, sidestep and sidestep the issue once more.

But it doesn’t matter, in her current state, she’ll be okay. Even if she refuses to meet me up front, she’ll be fine. As long as she learns to show what she really feels, I’ll trust her.

In my current state, I’m fine. As long as I achieve a state of perfect stasis and refuse to accept anything but bliss in everyday chaos, I will again bury that nagging feeling that has plaguing me for 6 years now in the deep pit of the foundations I’m building for my self.

Don’t worry about me Miss L, you’ll be fine with him. Even if nothing changes between you two, you will reach an unspoken agreement of the feelings between you that you have managed to keep from each other, even if it is ridiculously obvious.

And as usual I'll be fine by myself.

This time Mr. Yokoyama, I'm gonna destroy YOU.

The root of all evil

Usually, we blame the root of an event, the first mover that put things into movement.

But is this really reasonable? Shouldn’t we blame the process, the transformations that a thing went through to achieve such end?

Why do we put so much emphasis on the roots, on the pioneers, on the beginnings? If we put it commonsensically (ugh, mr beliasis speaking here), are the ingredients really more important than the cooking process?
