The Paladin

Ninja, Monkey, Punk, Clown



Paladins are vigilant and outgoing, enjoying the exploration of ideas and people and seeing everything and everyone as part of a cosmic whole. While they often give in to the wishes of parents, friends and authority figures (especially those symbolic of some ideal), they generally dislike bureaucracy, and are fond of launching crusades against such obstacles to their beliefs. They genuinely want to help others, but expect to be liked and admired in return (everything being part of the same whole, this is not surprising). While they are open to learning about new ideas, and meeting new people, they are often quick to discard most ideas as not fitting in with their own philosophies, and often forget older friends to focus on new ones. Yet they are pleasant and fun to work with, and use their strong convictions and social skills to persuade others of the rightness of their ideas. Their opinions of others and need for "return on investment" can leave them open to being wounded by uncaring individuals, and they have difficulty being alone, when they are forced to dwell on their feelings (they are quite the romantics!).

Paladins often tend towards Paranoid behavior, distrusting others and assuming that everyone is malevolent and "out to harm them." They question the loyalty of others (including close friends), and read hidden meanings into even benign events. Reluctant to confide in those close to them, they become easy to anger, quick to counterattack, and hold grudges for lengthy periods of time.

Famous paladin types include Mark Twain, Will Rogers, Carol Burnett, Paul Harvey and Bill Cosby.

In other news, new haircut. About 6" shorter--will see if I can get a pic taken today. Family Pascha gathering (I'm the only Orthodox in the family, but sis had to work last week and I was at Norwescon.) And then, of course, Pascha service tonight--it's Great and Holy Saturday, and I'm thinking I might like to be there for the reading of the Acts of the Apostles at 9. Or maybe I'll arrive later, like 10:30. Matins starts at 11:30 and God help you if you're not already there--it's a small church. Claustrophobics need not apply. *g*
