I believe free writing 333 words


I believe I am a good wife. I was married at the age of 19 and by 21 I had two kids. We met in high school when I was 17 and so was he. We got married right after high school, wll a year later. I went to college for one semester on a scholarship and decided it was more important to get married. He jointed the Marines and we moved from AZ to CA. it was very hard to move away from family. He was very self-absorbed and mentally abusive. We had our two kids and towo dogs and lived on the base. I hated my life. He  was not supportive or helpful. I had to take care of our two small girls, run an in home daycare business, and work at a bank on the weekends and we still never had enough money. He like to spend it on things he wanted. We were then stationed in MO at Ft. Wood, I hated it when we first moeved here. It was cold and even more lonely than CA. When I was 30 I had had enough. I divorced him and the next year I found my soul mate. My husband now appreciates me and has respect for me. Going through an awful marriage has really made me appreciate good one. I stayed with an abusive man for almost 13 years and was accused of cheating and flirting all the time and I never did. Turns out he did. Going through that really makes me thankful that I dound my husband now. I know how mean some men can be so I appreciate him more I think because I went through a bad experience. I try and always be grateful for him and thank him for the small things. If he is working on a project, I help or keep him company sometimes. I cook and he cleans u the dishes. It’s a 50/50 arrangement and it works great for us.

Jung Typology Reflection


I took the Jung typology test. My results were ISTJ, introverted, sensing with extraverted thinking. Some of the characteristics of this type are responsible, planner, organized, detail oriented, punctual, and private. These are all characteristics that I would use to describe myself. There were a couple of characteristics that I read about that I don’t possess, one is anti-tattoos. I have three, and I don’t mind if people have them, I just think they should be tasteful and not on the neck and face. The other one is doesn’t accept apologies easily. I do accept apologies but I don’t forget easily. I learned that I’m not creative or musically inclined. Some of the disfavored careers for my type are; entertainer, artist, singer, massage therapist, and journalist. The one that surprised me was journalist, but I guess you have to be around a lot of people and feel comfortable around new people and that is not me. Some of the favored careers are; data analyst, financial planner, engineer and office worker. I am a senior assistant in an office, and I love my job.

            I learned that being ISTJ will help me with writing and being a student. I believe with my attention to detail and ability to complete tasks on time that I will get my assignments done in a timely manner. I am always looking ahead to make sure I get my work done and it’s done correctly. This test showed me that I will need to work on working in groups and joining in on the conversation rather than sitting back and listening.
