The Artist

You experience the world at a depth and intensity that almost no one around you fully registers. You don't broadcast this. It comes through in what you make, how you move, the specific way you notice things other people walk past. You are deeply feeling and deeply private in equal measure.

Someone whose inner world is a complete universe that almost nobody gets a visa to.

You're drawn to people who are genuinely present. In their body, in the room, in the moment. Not performing presence. Actually there. You find performative people exhausting. What you want is someone who is real in a way you can feel before they've said anything.

You want to be known fully and you share yourself in fragments. The people who get the full picture earn it piece by piece over a long time. Most people don't have the patience for that. You've made peace with this. Mostly.

Your inner values are so strong and so clear to you that you can mistake other people's different values for wrong values. Not everyone who processes the world differently is less feeling than you. They just feel differently.
