Why am I a dreamer? Part 2

Wednesday, 16th of March 2022

Of course, this was meant to be posted last week, but I got busy dancing and meeting with friends and catching up with the latest drama in SmartBCH, so here we are. Do you guys follow Telegram groups too? Sometimes I can’t help laughing and rolling my eyes. I mainly just read, rarely participate in conversations though.

Going back to the subject though. In part 1 I posted the first 8 answers to the Creative Types personality test. Some of you, especially those who had different result that The Dreamer were curious of which answers I picked to compare with how you answered. So without a further delay, below are the remaining 7 answers.

My first question is always Why or How? WHY

Not that I don’t ask HOW at all, but most of the time I ask WHY. Often talking to my bestie we discuss a situation and at the end there is always a WHY question. Why oh why all the time!

What is your secret weapon Curiosity or Endurance? Curiosity

I am a very curious person. I’m curious about how things work. I’m curious what motivates people to behave the way the behave. I’m curious whether I can make challenging plants to thrive in my house or my garden. I’m curious whether the mushroom I saw in the forest is edible. I’m just curious about so many things!

Endurance can also be my strength. I can endure a lot of pain for some reason. When I broke my wrist in 2020, my friends said it wasn’t broken or else I would be in pain (I was!). The same when I broke my shoulder a year later. I carried on skating, cause when will be the next opportunity to skate again?

In fact, I endured a lot of hardships since I was a child and especially when I was a child. Maybe that’s why I want to put the endurance on the ‘old secret weapons’ shelf. I want it to be in the past. Curiosity is what motivates me now.

I'd rather talk to someone I just met or to myself? Myself

I said I’d rather be talking to myself. In truth I talk to myself often. Sometimes out loud, sometimes in my head, but I do it a lot.

I do talk to someone I just meet too, but only when somehow forced by the situation. When a new person is introduced to a circle of friends, I usually leave the talking for someone else. I just listen, while being busy on my phone ;)

Everything is connected - True or False? TRUE

Of course everything is connected. I couldn’t answer any other way. Quantum physics and especially Quantum Entanglement have already proven that all is connected. Me, you, the plants, the bugs and everything that’s on this planet we call Earth. There is no doubt about it.

Are you a Fortune cookie or Birthday cake? Fortune Cookie

Birthday Cake? Nah, not me. I don’t even like birthdays, so how could I be a birthday cake?

Fortune Cookie fits me much better. Not only because of my fascination with ‘fortune telling’ tarot cards, but rather in a sense that you never know what you gonna get with me. It will always be honest though 😁

My creativity is more a Method or Madness? Madness

It’s kinda like the systems vs stories. Methods are great, you mind follow a method and do well I’m sure, but Madness is me and I am the madness.

And I try, I really do. I read the seed package before planting the seeds and I think I remember the method and I follow, but then I throw away the package and do it ‘my way’. Plants still grow abundantly with my mad methods, so probably is not all that bad.

I tend to go Over the top or Under the radar? BOTH

I do both, but I selected Under the radar. Most often I like to go unnoticed. I want the government, council, advertising companies and tax office to know as little about me as physically possible. I rarely post on Facebook. I stay away from mainstream anything. Even at salsa parties I have my hiding corners believe me or not. Once on the dance floor I can however be over the top, as well as in some other real life circumstances.

So here it is - the truth about my answers. As you can see the truth is never really black or white. We’re all some shades of grey I guess. That’s why the results of all those test can never really be black or white either. Yes, I am a dreamer, like mentioned in the introduction article, but at times I am also a thinker - can find the switch to turn off the thoughts running through my brain when I try to sleep. I am an artist too. I like to draw and create pretty things, but I don’t do it often. Sometimes I plant spring bulbs in pots and over the winter months I forget what I planted and the flowers open and I’m very impressed with what I’ve created.

I bet I could find a few other creative types in me and so could you. While I will always try the new creativity types when I come across them and have reading the results, I always take them with a pinch of salt too.
