At heart I am very gentle, impressionable, and receptive -a dreamer. The world of my imagination, feelings, and intuition is as real to me as anything in the outer world, though I may have trouble verbalizing or interpreting my inner experiences in a way others can understand. Mystical, artistic, musical, emotional and imaginative, I have a rich inner life, though I may seem rather unobtrusive and quiet outwardly. I usually keep to myself.

I am more of a poet than a rational scientist, for my mind does not function in a strictly logical, linear fashion. The language of music, art, or poetry is natural to me, and I am also able to think in highly abstract and symbolic terms. Translating my thoughts and impressions into concrete, everyday language may be difficult for me at times and consequently I may appear less intelligent or at least less quick-witted and verbal than others. This was especially true of me as a child, and I probably daydreamed a good deal also. I am intuitive and able to sense what others' thoughts and feelings are, even before they say anything to me. I often form an opinion about a person or situation without much factual knowledge of them, and my impressions are usually correct. I can be somewhat absent-minded and I become so immersed in my own thoughts that I overlook things in my immediate, tangible environment. I am extremely open-minded and believe that anything is possible. Intangible or spiritual forces seem just as real to me as anything in the concrete world. My imagination and my sympathetic understanding of other people are two of my greatest gifts.
