About Me

Open-minded, non-conventional, free-thinking oddball. And dayum proud of it!! What Type of Person Are You? [pictures + detailed results]
The satisfied - The desireless


Not greedy by nature, the Satisfied knows of what they have achieved and earned, and feels content with that. Materialistic impulses happen rarely, if ever, and they don't value possessions and trends nearly as much as most do. The Satisfied usually have a calm personality and tend to be full of care, whether they are open with it or not. Of course they can be selfish, but their selfless nature proceeds that by far.
Downsides are that the Satisfied may be taken advantage of, in the likes of favours per se. It is in their nature to help, and they can be big push-overs when it's about injustice towards themselves. Also, since they don't want to bother their peers and close ones, they keep most of their problems inside. If this builds up they may start to suffer in silence, a completely unnecessary act.
Because they have a hard time to say no, and since people may use them, with time the Satisfied could grow hateful and distrusting. However, it appears now, that they are not. They reckon that some people are bad news and stay away from them. They stay with their own group of trusted people instead. As the Satisfied's name implies, they don't seem to have any dreams or goals. That is a perception not quite true. As any other human being, they do have them. But the difference is, that the Satisfied are content with their life even if the dream would not come true.
Quote:"It is not length of life, but depth of life." -Ralph Waldo Emerson

And if you have a guitar- I recommend learning to play it just enough to play and scream at least one song at the top of your lungs. I promise, it's good therapy for life, and it's cheap.

I'd like to meet:

I like people who havent lost the passion of their youth. Yet have gained wisdom with their years. A sense of humor... really, it's good to have one.

"It's Alright, Ma, (I'm Only Bleeding)" by Bob Dylan pretty much sums up my feelings on life in roughly 8 minutes, and is my favorite song ever:) If you can't understand him, read the lyrics- it's the song after the 'trip scene' in Easyrider.
