INFJ

Mirrors Strike Back

June 29, 2022 / patriciakirsch / Leave a comment

     Sometimes you discover a writer who you simply click with. You become engrossed in whatever they write, buy whatever they publish, and their words stay with you long after you've read them. That's the kind of writer Rebekah Mallory is. Having first found her online through her blog, I knew her honest, edgy, … Continue reading Mirrors Strike Back

Career musts

May 24, 2022 / patriciakirsch / 2 Comments

Are you a journal writer? Do you keep them and read them from time to time? Or do they end up in the garbage or a firepit? I've been a journal writer since I was young--like under ten years old young. My first ones were the standard little diaries with a lock my mom gave … Continue reading Career musts

Home (Part 2)

April 14, 2022 / patriciakirsch / 3 Comments

Is it fair to expect our new house, or any house, to live up to our former "camelot?" When we went shopping for our next house, we had a smaller budget and didn't want the large yard or need the two-car garage (though that would've been really nice). Instead, location, price and a house we … Continue reading Home (Part 2)

Home (Part one)

April 4, 2022 / patriciakirsch / 6 Comments

We sold the house we had lived in for five years last June. When we bought it in 2016, we knew it wouldn't be our forever home. But even though I knew that, it didn't stop me from nesting in it, falling in love and not wanting to leave. I am the kind of person … Continue reading Home (Part one)

Going through change as an INFJ

May 24, 2021 / patriciakirsch / 2 Comments

I just got off the phone with an old coworker. Maria was the housekeeper for the veterinary hospital I worked in during the 90's. She's 67 today and really hasn't changed that much over the years. She's a simple person, a woman with a strong work ethic, good intentions and a crazy personality. I've always … Continue reading Going through change as an INFJ

A new year, a strong future

January 6, 2021 / patriciakirsch / Leave a comment

The holidays are always filled with mixed emotions for me. I am always grateful to share Christmas and New Year's with my husband, my brother-in-law and my parents. But, while I realize my blessings, I also know that over those two weeks of stepping away from myself and becoming the social hostess and dealing with … Continue reading A new year, a strong future

Old Journals, New Inspiration

November 23, 2020 / patriciakirsch / 6 Comments

I think we can all agree it's been a strange and difficult year. For a highly sensitive person and INFJ like me, there were times when I wondered if I'd get through it. And it's not over yet. But I think that what I once considered my flaws are now my strengths. It surprises me … Continue reading Old Journals, New Inspiration

Do you chase people?

September 10, 2020 / patriciakirsch / 4 Comments

I recently read somewhere that INFJs tend to chase people. At first, I didn't believe it. We are introverted, quiet people as a rule and don't like to push ourselves on others. We love when our people are just as crazy about us as we are with them. But we don't chase them. It sounded … Continue reading Do you chase people?

Thank you for being you

June 29, 2020 / patriciakirsch / 2 Comments

  I think everyone can agree that this has been a strange, scary, turbulent year so far. My husband was hospitalized the first week of January for an unknown lung illness, which we discovered a couple of months later was Coronavirus. He had just gone back to work and was feeling more normal when Covid-19 … Continue reading Thank you for being you

Drama, poetry and my INFJ issues

May 13, 2020 / patriciakirsch / 1 Comment

  Don't look at me. Don't notice me. I just want to listen and watch. It's too hard for me to join the discussion. I hate my voice and might say something wrong. People may laugh. I hate my picture taken. I'd rather be the photographer. Writing how I feel is easier than saying it.  … Continue reading Drama, poetry and my INFJ issues

Poetry was my first writing love. I've written it my whole life. It's been a release, therapy, a needful thing.
Love this art in downtown Blairsville! ♥️
It's a snow day, a sort of gloomy day. I'm struggling with procrastination and discipline, but I'm not giving up.
Spotted these beauties on a walk. I love when seasons mix and provide a simple and lovely show.
Don't talk to strangers!
This pack of napkins was speaking to me!
