Seed's currently feeling

Like a love without devotion, like a cloud without the rain; Like a heart without emotion, like a wound without the pain. Like a prayer without an answer, like a bird without a song; Like a hope without a future, like a night without the dawn. Without You, I am nothing; I am nothing without You; Only You can make something out of nothing; I am nothing without You. ~PAUL & RITA BALOCHE

just spent a few hours going through a book. (Remember - I'm the guy who doesn't really READ boox)

came across this one, and it caught my attention, Do What You Are: Discover the Perfect Career for You Through the Secrets of Personality Type

and I almost dismissed it cuz the word "career" goes against my gut. When I hear/read that word, I cringe - I think of the dronez of life - the 9-5ers, the people trying to kick each other off ladders.......but the book had cartoon people on it, so it kept my interest long enough to realize....maybe I should check this thing out.

well as far as I'm concerned, I've read nearly all of the book. I skimmed through the 1st few chapters, discovered my personality type (there are 16 types of people), then read all the parts about me, and some parts about my opposite. (1% of people have my type, 13% have my opposite)

at first I was very sceptical how merely 4 letters could define me and teach me anything of great significance. I hate being labeled or defined......but it was right on. I'd say like 98% or what I read about my type pertains to me! Screw horrorscopes - this is way more practical!

some reasons I recomend to read this book:
1. If yer hard on yerself for the way you think, feel, act, communicate, etc, it can help you appreciate those things about yerself, see where U can put em to good use, and understand some simple things to ask yerself to be better in those areas

2. If yer not happy with what yer doing in life, it can help you realize what U really want to be doing, and look at what steps you can make NOW and in the future to get to yer dreams....even dreams you never bothered to dream before!

3. Opposites attract, and if yer with yer opposite, I recomend reading about them before you go nuts trying to change or give up on trying to understand them.

4. If there's anyone in yer life U wanna understand better, and would like to support and communicate with better.

I'm thinking now, how I'd like to setup perhaps 2 hours with my family, to each figure out and learn each other's types, and read about them so we can be less critical of each other, more understanding, and communicate better "at each other's level". Perhaps we'll stop expecting each other to learn to behave the way we do ourselves!

So go to Half.com, Amazon.com, yer library, or whatever, and run through it for an hour or 4. It can really make a difference.

and best of all, you can finally fill in yer "Myer-Briggs" type in yer Tabby Profile!
