Okay, so the other day I was scrolling through my feed, and I saw this quiz about finding your spirit animal. I thought, “Why not? Sounds like fun.” So, I clicked on it.
First, I tried one of those online quizzes. You know, the ones with questions like “What’s your favorite color?” and “Which of these landscapes do you prefer?” Stuff like that. Honestly, it felt kinda random. I answered all the questions, and it told me my spirit animal was a… butterfly. I mean, butterflies are pretty, but it didn’t really resonate with me.
So, I decided to dig a little deeper. I closed the quiz and started to think about it a little bit more seriously.
Self-Reflection Time
- What animals am I drawn to? I’ve always loved wolves. Their loyalty, the way they work together in a pack. I remembered reading a lot books and documentations about the wolves.
- What are my personality traits? I consider myself to be pretty independent, but I also value my close relationships. I’m fiercely protective of my friends and family. I can be a bit stubborn, and I definitely have a wild side.
- Consider recurring themes.I noticed that images or stories of certain animals, like those, always get my attention.
After that. It started to feel a lot more personal. Just by me thinking about my own traits and the animals. It was way more about introspection than any online quiz. It felt much more powerful, and made more sense. I think I’ve figured it out, at least for now. It might change as I grow and change, and that’s cool too.
