You have feelings, you cry, you feel towards things on your own subjective level and you live for the people you love, to be there for them. That's where your Fi is and it's also in your values, humanity over colder things, nature and responsibility of our actions, kindness, moral support -those are Fi, but mostly relationship (to be of some help to others whether by comfort or by advice). It's also a subjective function, you value what resonated with you when you were young and through your personal experiences of the world and people around you. Our values merge because we all have the same processor or hard wire/hard drive and we all seem to come to value the same things; more religious EII will value environmental causes, for example, but will acknowledge that these are works of God, reconciling their beliefs with their values and how they were raised (also know as your culture). I am a humanitarian/mix of religious preferences, so I value responsible technology as the best stewardship; that may differ from the ultra Christian and conservative EII who will not see beyond the Bible's interpretation of their role on earth because J is a judging function, meaning, it takes a while for you to reconcile who you are to your outside role and then change yourself. Opposite is the perceptual who adapts and moves their mind as situation changes, or according to the situation.
