I used to wonder if I was God's typo.

Yeah, nope. Your creativity is evidence of God's hand in and on your life, Marcia.

Here I am (coincidentally, at age 40), realizing over the past year - thanks to you - that I'm also a Random Abstract Global Processor. The way you describe finding and processing information is so resonant with my own experience...and I've spent years trying to apply methodologies to my thinking & my work to somehow comb it out and make it resemble something more organized. It's freeing to think - that just doesn't work for me! Bless you.

Kristen, that is an incredibly freeing revelation, yes? And a testimony to God's creativity in so many ways... I'm pretty certain that most creatives, at least those who write poetry maybe? and express themselves in a visual art form of some kind share the same way of processing things.

Oh, I love me some Frederick!

Jody, I love having people like you in my life, who think and process differently than I do. (You are much more like my music director.) Together, we make a great village.

I just completed his test. I'm also Abstract Random. I'm not at all surprised by that. I'm an enneagram 4.

Oh interesting that you're a four, Stephanie, but that makes sense. Especially because you enjoy taking photographs and notice things creatively And here's to abstract random thinkers yay! It is such a gift to understand ourselves.
