Enneagram Type 4 Board Archive It all depends on where you're going.....Posted by Amanda :) on July 11, 1999 at 14:21:20: In Reply to: Re: Welcome back to the fold! posted by Elk on July 11, 1999 at 11:05:26: Hi Elk :) : OK, I have a question; where do I start? ;-) Fair enough question. It all depends on where you're coming from - and where you need to go....and we don't want to start 're-inventing the wheel' if we can possibly help it. I presume you want to know where to start with understanding a 3 wing and it's wiley ways, am I right? But do you want to know abouts it's influence on your own history or maybe how you can draw from it for future reference? Do you want to discuss how having access to the 3 has helped 'mask' the 4w5? How it enabled you to function more effectively in your world? How it kept the 'real' you from being recognised by others - even by yourself? The enneagram is a very 360 degree kind of thing, as far as I can ascertain. There are paths leading of in every direction, limited only by the degree of one's curiosity and imagination. Pick a path and we'll collectively see where it takes us.
Questions anyone? smiles : Elk : : Hello Ev and Elk : : Welcome back to the fold, Ev! : : Mind you - I never doubted for a minute that you were a 4 - even our 5 brothers and sisters (including those with 4 wings) don't relate quite so well to 4's as a 4 would....and you relate VERY well indeed. Still, I do understand what it's like to feel driven to discover type. I agree with Elk on this. Like Elk, I am mostly mistyped as a 7 - simply because I'm so outgoing. I think for most of my life I've had a stronger 3 wing than 5 wing. It's only been in the last 5 years that I've really come to see the 5 in me....so if you want to know about the 3 stuff (it's not all it's cracked up to be, by the way) - just ask away. I'm in a particularly magnanimous mood anyway and I just can't wait to start dropping my little pearls of wisdom all over the place *g*....ok, so I'm kidding....but I am happy to answer any questions you care to pose. I can't promise to answer them well, mind you, but I will answer.... : : To the hunt....!! : : smiles
