INFJs

Life

Gentle, caring, complex and highly intuitive

Artistic and creative; live in a world of hidden meanings and possibilities.

Constantly define and re-define priorities

As genuinely warm as complex; hold a special place in the heart of people who they are close to, who are able to see their special gifts and depth of caring.
