24 Cartoons That Will Deeply Resonate With Introverts (Especially INFJs)
Aaron Caycedo-Kimura, author of Text, Don’t Call, created INFJoe Cartoons to help other INFJs not feel so alone. In one of our email conversations, he told me, “I wanted to encourage other INFJs, particularly younger ones, who may feel out of place like I have all my life. I remember how tough it was growing up. Still is.” But even introverts who are not INFJs will deeply relate to his cartoons, which explore the joys and challenges of living the quiet life.
Aaron was born and raised in California but has lived with his INFP wife on the East Coast for almost three decades. He works as a graphic designer but says he’s a painter and poet by heart.
To INFJs, he says, “Be true to yourselves, be good to yourselves. You’re wired a particular way, fashioned according to a particular design, so use it to do good, to do that which only you can do.”
His cartoons show how life can be both wonderful and painful when you’re an introvert and an INFJ. Here are 24 of them.
