Agreed. What do you feel alienated from on a habitual basis, The main road has many aspectss, which ones are far way from
I'm assuming you left out "you"
as in:
the main road has many aspects; which ones are (you) far away from?
If that is incorrect, please clarify.
To answer what I have stated above....
Generally how other people think. I notice that a lot of people are more emotional - in terms of how they think and consider things- than I am.
But also, ...... the logic systems that people use.... in general..... are....... ...... I don't know. I am not sure if it is better to say my own is more modern and newer, 'advanced', or if I should call the others' more outdated and ...... "typical", so to say. But I'm not thinking differently just to be different, it's because of the type of thoughts I have. People seem to be very... .narrow in terms of what they think. I think INTjs are very good at global thinking, universal thinking, thinking on large scales. Perhaps some sort of mega Extrroverted thought process, I don't really know.
But I'll try to stay on topic..
I believe, personally, that I've also had a more rare kind of upbringing in my family. I do not think that I had a bad upbringing, though I was into self pity at one point in my life. But things have changed a great deal since those days. I'm still a young kid, but it seems like a long time ago. At the very least, it was between 1/9 and 1/8 of my life ago, which is a long time in terms of proportion. Anyways... my upbringing was different in..... not only do I activly seek different aspects and angles of a sitaution or problem, but I actually HAVE seen them in my life. I have seen what it is like to live in the city, good cities and bad cities. I have lived in more rural areas. I've been in suburbia. I've been in trailor parks. I don't think a lot of people have experienced that sort of diverstiy, and seen/interacted with (or more so observed for me, I geuss) the different peopoe who are native to those situations.
However, I still feel that if I were..... if I had lived in the same place for all my life, I would still have a lot of the same qualities I do have now. I will not deny, though, that I may not have become an INTj, I'm not sure. I have not concluded for myself yet if I believe personality types are "from birth" or if they are developed over time. I'm leaning towards the later.
So with all this diveristy in my life, I am noticing one thing in particular, for myself. And I believe this may relate to some of my outspoken ness (especialyl for an INTj). I think I've had more "life experience" than most people. Well, ....... I'm not the only one who thinks that. Several people, in family and out of family, have said that I am that way - taht I have seen more than most people my age. Now, I know a lot of kids see a whole lot of things these days, so I do not really think I am alone in that aspect, at least not completely. However, I think I've had a stable enough environment (yet one that also had enough ... instability in it to keep me on my toes, so to say), and generally, the appropriate time to consider and reflect things. And I've had a good relationship with my father, who guided me with questions and thought process when I was younger, I think... but that's another story.
What the life experience comments are directed at is what I am seeing here, in college. A lot of the people here seem like children to me, and I cannot take them seriously, especially in terms of being an adult. But then again, some adults I cannot take seriously, so in all reality the gap isn't so great as I have made it seem here in this paragraph. But the point is...... there is something..... I don't know..... it's easy to say "maturity", but something to that effect.
ALso........ the independence factor. This is huge.
It's not really good or bad, just like I don't want to lable anything else as good or bad, though I am well aware that I have pained all of my comments thus far with very positive colors. As far as independence goes, I realize I am incredibly indpendent. All the time I see fellow students doing things with other people, and I'm just not compelled in such things. I go places that I find practical or useful to me, but otherwise keep to myself,and thus have mimum relations. I talk to people in class, and am trying to establish "working relationships" - I have not so many problems there, although some class set ups are not so favoroable for discussion for me.
Continuing with independence, though... I've never really realized how independent I was until this last 6 months. Here at college, I can be almost completely independent, because I don't have any ties, and essentials like food, shelter, and clothing are already here and within my reach. I jsut have to make sure I eat and sleep. But so many people, like my room mate, do things just to do it with other people. It's not really appleaing for me to do things like that. I'm going to information fairs and expos to see if there are clubs or anything that I am interested in, and I probably will take those up if I find them. But in general, I don't enjoy socializing, and going to bars is completey out of the question
I cannot stand beer and parties, either, so that is kind of..... "away from the beaten path" of the college student, etc.
......
Hmm.....
that is a lot for now, but I enjoyed writing for this bit. There are other things I am sure, but athat is what came out. Hope it;s helpful for you. If you ahve any other questions about...well I guess I can only speak for myself... I'll be happy to answer, most likely, unless it's something I don't want to talk about- but you'll be able to figure that out from my response, most likely.
Specifics are thebest
Though I get the whole "yes, I'll offer a vauge question or statement, and let the answerer determine the paremeters, and in doing so he will reveal more about himself", etce etc etc etc etc etc etc and so on and so fourth, etc etce tec etc etce etc.....................
blah blah blah.
