WHO ARE YOU MOST LIKE?...

It was a busy weekend out of town at the in-laws for a family reunion so I'm pretty tired. I had to get all the housecleaning, grocery shopping, etc. done this afternoon. Plus riding in a car for 3 hours didn't do much for my back. It's pretty achy tonight.

I saw this and thought I'd share. I'd be interested who you are like. Come back and share with me.

You Are a Grace!

You are a Grace -- "I need to understand the world."

Graces have a need for knowledge and are introverted, curious, analytical, and insightful.

How to Get Along with Me

• Be independent, not clingy
• Speak in a straightforward and brief manner
• I need time alone to process my feelings and thoughts
• Remember that If I seem aloof, distant, or arrogant, it may be that I am feeling uncomfortable
• Make me feel welcome, but not too intensely, or I might doubt your sincerity
• If I become irritated when I have to repeat things, it may be because it was such an effort to get my thoughts out in the first place
• don't come on like a bulldozer
• Help me to avoid my pet peeves: big parties, other people's loud music, overdone emotions, and intrusions on my privacy

What I Like About Being a Grace

• standing back and viewing life objectively
• coming to a thorough understanding; perceiving causes and effects
  
• my sense of integrity: doing what I think is right and not being influenced by social pressure
  
• not being caught up in material possessions and status
  
• being calm in a crisis

What's Hard About Being a Grace

• being slow to put my knowledge and insights out in the world
• feeling bad when I act defensive or like a know-it-all
• being pressured to be with people when I don't want to be
• watching others with better social skills, but less intelligence or technical skill, do better professionally

Graces as Children Often

• spend a lot of time alone reading, making collections, and so on
• have a few special friends rather than many
• are very bright and curious and do well in school
• have independent minds and often question their parents and teachers
• watch events from a detached point of view, gathering information
• assume a poker face in order not to look afraid
• are sensitive; avoid interpersonal conflict
• feel intruded upon and controlled and/or ignored and neglected

Graces as Parents

• are often kind, perceptive, and devoted
• are sometimes authoritarian and demanding
• may expect more intellectual achievement than is developmentally appropriate
• may be intolerant of their children expressing strong emotions
