a world dominated by other personalities, your passions and hobbies can occasionally
fall flat with others. It can be difficult for INFJs to convey their
feelings, emotions, or needs. And, because they are so uncommon, they are unlikely to
meet very many others who share their interests. But, in the end, a path can be discovered
that stimulates even the most sensitive and intuitive introverts and finds its way into
their hearts. However, everyone in their own life requires understanding and recognition
from others around them so that they might be able to do something to make them happy
and enthusiastic.
