New publicity shot for upcoming articles in InLightTimes
Nancy discusses two important characteristics of introverts in her article, LOVED REAL:
(1) obsession and
(2)emotional depth
Here are two excerpts from LOVED REAL by Nancy R. Fenn. The first is about obsession.
THE RED SHOES is in the public domain now and can be viewed on the internet. The Red Shoes was one of my favorite stories as a child and I was later fascinated with the movie starring Moira Shearer. It is a morality tale on the surface but underneath it is a story of passionate obsession. The ability to become obsessed is a characteristic of most introverts. It is closely associated with our exalted powers of concentration and ability to focus.
See Nancy's IntrovertZFilm pages for a look at The Red Shoes and other films for and with introverts.
Visit Hadley Ajana's I WATCH for INTROVERTS film essay series as well.
The second excerpt is about depth.
THE LITTLE MERMAID, in its original version, is tale of unrequited love that is almost too painful to read. Andersen describes the anguish of worshipping from a distance that is all too familiar for introverts, who suffer in the extreme at a disadvantage because the depth of their feelings finds no avenue to the outer world.
Please don't ever confuse Walt Disney's version of a fairy tale with the real thing. I recommend reading Hans Christian Andersen's original fairy tale of The Little Mermaid. Read it HERE.
I think a lot of infp introverts would identify with the feeling that some of the things they have gone through to stay in the general vicinity of a loved one could be compared to walking on glass shards, things such as going to parties or visiting with large groups of relatives on holidays.
