mmm... sounds so goodI am happy, ecstatic in fact, to let you indulge in bacon weaves. I shall retreat to my own luxuries in the meantime, such as manga, mussels, sundried tomatoes and chocolate-brownie ice-cream.
She is wiseWhy I love LSEs:
beyond words
beautiful within
her soul
brighter than
the sun
lovelier than
love
dreams larger
than life
and does not
understand the
meaning of no.
Because everything
through her, and in her, is
"Yes, it will be done."

I see life as a fight. I see some people as enemies, but most people as friends. I would encourage people to stay off of the enemies list though.
I don't consider myself a warrior unless I have to be. I do however consider life to be a struggle. I consider myself to be somewhat of a spiritual warrior, war displaced into the realm of the soul and the psyche and even the spirit. I wholeheartedly subscribe to Wallace Stevens on this: "Solider, there is a war between the mind/and sky, between thought and day and night." Life and poetry are fights for the truth on a spiritual/psychic plane. It's work to keep your sanity and grow your mind and perception. It's work to avoid lying to yourself or to others. It's a fight.
But I'm quicker to view others as potential allies than potential enemies.
Not a rule, just a trend.
IEI. Probably Fe subtype. Pretty sure I'm E4, sexual instinctual type, fairly confident that I'm a 3 wing now, so: IEI-Fe E4w3 sx/so. Considering 3w4 now, but pretty sure that 4 fits the best.
Yes 'a ma'am that's pretty music...
I am grateful for the mystery of the soul, because without it, there could be no contemplation, except of the mysteries of divinity, which are far more dangerous to get wrong.
I suppose taking action is as much a valid, and shaped, response to emotion as any. Maybe even the only real response. Actions can be variable or invariable with respect to a situation. When we assert that a person has variable response capacity, we call that choice. When the response is invariant, we call that a preference or trait, an expression of nature.
So, beta Ni is action then.
