Taurus Quote of the Day!
a true Taurus doesn't care what "they" think - and normally we don't label / judge others in that same context - we leave them alone unless they need something or want something from us
we are here to enjoy and that is all we care about - believe me, I care nothing for people who want to put their own words/thoughts on me - I beat to the sound of my own drum, not anyone else's
T-Tough
A-Affectionate
U- Unlimited Love
R-Responsible
U- Underestimated
S- Strong
T - tenacious
A - awesome
U - undeniable
R - reliable
U - unforgettable
S - sexy
Well i think the point is to ponder whether or not we should be taking more responsibility into what perception we give.
What benefits would we might actually receive towards our ultimate goals, needs and desires, if we actually just started participating more to play the game.
but I had already pondered that point and my perception is that I don't care what other people think - I never did - wasn't born that way ... I can achieve my ultimate goal myself and if I need or want help I know how to get it along the way ... I don't want to play the game - I hate games -
I won't be a lemming where the entire herd goes over the cliff because the first one did it ...
if you turn that around, perhaps we are trend setters and not introverts - and besides, no one that truly knows me says I'm introverted - they think I'm extrovert because of the tendency to say what is on my mind but I'm really somewhere in between ...
however if this is something you wish to aspire too - how can we help ?

You give yourself a lot of credit.
How did this become some rally for being your own person, or not following someone else, the quote doesn't challenge that, but rather asks is it better to share yourself more, to be connected.
Oh wearisome Condition of Humanity!
Born under one law, to another bound:
Vainly begot and yet forbidden vanity,
Created sick, commanded to be sound
a lot of credit for what - knowing myself ?

My daughter is a Taurus and I only understand her because of my placement in communication. This is exactly how I'd describe her @tcta and I've also taught her it takes too much energy to hate or fight with someone, yet she's constantly attacked because she's perceived one way and she's not. She's the most independent free thinker and I love her to bits!
Keep calm and love a taurus I am going to do the opposite anyways. It's up to a person how comfortable they are and I have a very small to none circle anyways. So if I do open up it's we chose it for you to be in our life. We are an earth nurturing but stubborn grounded root.
thank you Elle77 and Jeane and busyeyes ... etc. those who can understand - I know it's not easy - so maybe it's hard to explain and maybe it's just me not being able to explain it and perhaps it's that others just don't or can't understand unless like Elle77 says - you have to know someone like this ...
to Tiz, one of my parents was not happy with me, the other one understood - and I have a great partner ...
to Elle77 - YES - we walk away - we don't care to bother to argue and/or confront but more than that - it's just not worth the time to us - we know what we know, we are what we are, we do what we do and if anyone gets in our way - well - we are the bull - so we'll just stomp over them and continue on our merry way - not a care in the world ! we don't let much stand in the way of our goals - ha - once we decide what our goals are lol
and yes Astrobyn, I do know myself
and Elle77 - good job - let her bloom - she walks the path less travelled and she will enjoy finding the treasures along the way!
"and that's why we stay longer than we should... because it hurts to watch something you love transform into something you should hate. We sit and wait for it to return to its original state, in denial as we ignore the fact that what we see was always there and what is now, will always be."

What happened to the other one?
I'm guilty of this. I feel like I'm giving up on something and I have this deep perseverance, that says never give up and never give up on love, so I can take a while to really face the facts and walk away. You have to do something directly to me, that forces my hand, otherwise I move glacially slow.

I agree with this A LOT as of late and try to work on this more. It's a constant process and it needs a lot of work. But I know for a fact that it will benefit me long term 🙂 I feel a lot of miscommunication is actually the root of the problem with most of my relationships as a taurus and not necessarily that we just "didn't get along".
Especially because I know how I work it makes everything more the more hard to work on. It's like fighting yourself in what comes natural to you and is human nature to you. But I feel I'll bloom more completely and maturely if I work on this and stop being just the taurus that i am. Because I also have some Uranus in me, I think I also love to always expand and not to simply stand stuck in my one-sized condition of taurus. It's like "oh I've seen how taurus works and is all about, let's try to break the pattern now and see to what new horizons we can advance to" 🙂

“One of the risks of being quiet is that the other people can fill your silence with their own interpretation: You’re bored. You’re depressed. You’re shy. You’re stuck up. You’re judgmental. When others can’t read us, they write their own story—not always one we choose or that’s true to who we are.”
