Well, there's another problem with this (doing a study). *Not
everybody understands themselves as much as they would like to.
*It's hard to analyze yourself and come up with a true picture
of the "real you". Others then, end up doing it for you, and you
generally take their word for it. *It's truly impossible to know
what's going on in another person's mind - although it's not
hard to get very very close :-)
> Yeah, maybe all people do have a desire to "know" - maybe they
are just lazy?
Well, some people view their purposes in life not as seekers of
information or of self-perfection, but rather as being part of a
grand process, whether that is as an accountant in your firm, or
a printer in a print shop... *Or as a parent... *or even playing
your role as someone who =doesn't= know what their role is yet!
*(their role is usually the role of the seeker :-> ) == The
greatest questions continue to stand without definitive answers.
*Oh well - the search for answers is a personal journey that no
one can take for you. == I would say so :-) *Trust, faith,
compassion may exist in the animal world, but we are a long time
from discovering that. *As it stands now, we are only certain
that humans have that capacity. *(while it may seem that there
are *some* people who don't have the ability to have
faith/belief/trust/compassion - I think everybody does. *Even
the most "vile"ist of criminals love their mothers, for example
=== Well, Lee, I would have to say "yes"! *How is it with
another INFP around? *There are astounding differences between
one INFP and another (Introverted, iNtuitive, Feeling,
Perceiving on the Myers-Briggs Temperment Index for others who
are wondering about this silly acronym :-) ).... and I wonder
how easily it is to get along with another of the same type.
Strangely enough, my two best friends are ESTP and ISTP. *I
haven't figured out why, but maybe they are able to "keep me in
line" or something. ====
