    So what ARE our values, INFPs?

    INFP values can be very different from one another, so what are yours?

    I actually wasn't aware I had such deep ones until I started researching MBTI. But it makes sense. And lately I've realised that mine are about: connecting with people, pursuing my dreams, having a mindset of positivity, not staying in one place but "going for it" and taking that risk, pushing myself into the unknown. But especially connecting with people and the importance of maintaining those connections.



    What about everyone else?

    # 1 value: Honesty.

    All my subsequent values are derived from this one. Authenticity, courage, transparency, fidelity, loyalty - it all reverts back to how honest you are, how forthright and truthful.

    For example, I can't stand people who cheat. In my eyes, these are people who have failed to be honest with themselves and their partner, and instead chose the easy way. In a way, it all ties back to integrity and sincerity.

    I'm still kinda figuring them out, it's hard for me to find them until someone or somethig steps on them, but anyway the few I know are:

    The right for every person in the world to make their own choices.
    Making sure I have little to no regrets when it comes to doing things in my life, like going to Rome if I get the chance or asking someone out.
    People screwing with my future and trying to change the way I am.

    I don't think I'm going to list them all but some of the most important ones are
    -Treat every living thing with kindness and understanding. (Including flies...)
    -Don't be selfish, think of other people
    -Keep an open mind
    -Aspire to do good

    Fi values are all different between each person, but I think a top one for me is open-mindedness.

    Just for me:
    Belief in myself, in my dreams and in my abilities; keeping wanting to live even when the situation is horrible.

    In general:
    Tolerance and thankfulness.

    -Judgement is a matter out of mortal hands
    -Life is about finding yourself
    -There are no absolutes. Nothing is perfect.

    Our values?

    They're the things that makes you stop and ask if a victim is okay. The things that speak to us in the back of our mind, warning us away when a friend implores us to commit an immoral act. The things that make us pass up a big payday when it would mean the suffering or loss of another. Their absoluteness is the foundation of our identities and our very way of life; the integrity of which being so adamant and stalwart that the corrupted can only look upon it in wonder.

    To forsake them is to forsake ourselves and the very things that make us who we are.

    I don't think you mean absolution; absolution is the mass noun form of the verb "to absolve". I think "absoluteness" is probably what you were going for.

    And when you say "of which", are you referring to "our" way of life, or the absoluteness of which you spoke originally? Also, who or what are "the corrupted"? Do you really think these corrupt people look on anything and wonder if they are truly "corrupt" by some sort of inductive reasoning?
