I couldn't think of a better title other than NF hero idealism. I think it's the thing with NFs, someone in a field of our choice touches us so deeply that we look up to them and surround our dreams around them.
This is the case when it comes to me and my favorite musician. When I first heard his music, it captivated my imagination and I found someone who actually understood how INFJs feel different from everyone else. I felt like I went through a spiritual rebirth. It's like "finally, a songwriter out there that gets it and understands the Ni vision!" I suppose the relationship I have with his music is a bit like that with Julie to Julia Child in the movie Julie and Julia. I want to write songs like my hero and carry on his style of music when he's gone. I hope to one day meet him, but I'm not sure if it will ever happen. Still I carry on with this fantasy of one day meeting him in person.
But one thing for certain, a lot of his music has helped me to grow and develop as a person. I knew music effected me deeply, but now music is my passion.
Do other NFs feel the same way about their heroes, both childhood and current ones?
