Talisa Soto
approach to life and appearances

The following is a description of Talisa's basic stance toward life, the way others see her, the way Talisa Soto comes across, the face she shows to the world. In the page about motivation you will read about the inner Talisa Soto - her real motivation, which describes the kind of person she is at heart and where her true priorities lie. Study this page and the next one and compare them - there may be significant differences between the two, in which case "the inner Talisa Soto" may not shine through and others may be in for so a few surprises once they get to know Talisa a little better. This page describes the disguise Soto wears, her role in life, while the page about motivation talks about the real person beneath the disguise.

Talisa Soto appears gentle and soft, and she acts rather reserved with others until she knows them well and feels it is safe to be open with them. Talisa has a strong need for emotional security and a sense of belonging, and is deeply attached to the past: her heritage, roots, family, cherished friends, familiar places, etc. Making radical changes or moves away from what is familiar and safe can be very painful and difficult for her. Soto tends to cling to people, memories and possessions of personal or sentimental significance. Having a home, a safe haven, is very important to Soto.

Soto approaches life emotionally and subjectively and she is sensitive to the emotional atmosphere, the subtle undercurrents of feeling in and around her. Instinctive and non-rational, Talisa Soto is often unable to give a clear, simple explanation for her actions. Something either feels right, or it does not.

Her emotions and personal loyalties tend to color Talisa's thoughts and opinions. She views life from a very personal perspective and often cannot mentally detach herself from her own personal bias and prejudices. She is apt to be concerned primarily with how something affects her and those dear and close to her, rather than with the principle or the broader social implications. For instance, she may be very patriotic and feel that whatever "my country" does is right without really knowing much about the other nation's policies or point of view. Simply put: if it is good for Talisa and her near and dear ones, then it is good. If it is not good for her and her near and dear ones, it is no good.

She is tenaciously loyal, protective, and supportive of those she cares about, and has a very strong nurturing, paternal nature. Talisa Soto empathizes with others and intuitively senses the feelings and needs of other people. Compassionate and sympathetic, she is easily moved by others' pain, and Talisa Soto is often the one that others seek out when they need comfort, reassurance, or help.

Her moods fluctuate and change frequently and she is sometimes open and sometimes withdrawn emotionally. Talisa Soto communicates nonverbally and appreciates a person who can pick up subtle cues and hints, rather than having to make everything explicit.

Talisa never forgets either kindness or unkindness shown to her.

Talisa Soto radiates a sense of confidence, well-being, and optimism, which inspires trust and good feelings in others. She likes herself and it shows. She expects success in life and she generally achieves it. However, Soto also tends to exaggerate or to overestimate herself, and she can be sloppy and careless when it comes to details.

There is an air of universal sympathy, gentleness, and nonjudgmental acceptance about Talisa Soto which draws people in need to her. Because she has a good deal of intuitive insight or psychic perceptiveness, Talisa is able to say or do just the right thing for them. Talisa Soto needs to beware of fostering dependency in those people, however.

Talisa Soto appears to be unusual, highly independent, and a free spirit. There is a touch of brilliance, of the creative genius, in her manner. She is also restless and easily distracted, tending to fly from one thing to another, which may give the impression that Soto is unreliable.
