They usually feel before they respond. All thoughts are processed introspectively and can be changeable like the brush stroke of a new color on a canvas. They often hold onto items sentimentally and often mismatch. Not because they do not want to match – but because their passions are diverse and they can see the connections no one else can. Are they spacey? Do they not pay attention? Perhaps it is just the opposite. They pay too much attention and do not know what to do with all of the information that has arrived.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1516957297993035027-5398806614473683020?l=xtinav.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://xtinav.blogspot.com/feeds/5398806614473683020/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1516957297993035027&amp;postID=5398806614473683020' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1516957297993035027/posts/default/5398806614473683020'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1516957297993035027/posts/default/5398806614473683020'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://xtinav.blogspot.com/2011/06/artist.html' title='An Artist'/><author><name>Christina V</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03355217684918545612</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='21' height='32' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_HaP6iPKRkUI/SnPKzYCo4RI/AAAAAAAAAtI/CwKi8Y1WBs4/S220/me.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry></feed>
