I was thinking about these threads and characteristics defining us.
So, what do you think defines you (or at least you see as very essential characteristics) ...
Me, in no particular order.
1. Compassion
2. Intelligence
3. Open-mindedness
4. A duality
5. Sensitivity
6. Intuition
7. Stillness/calmness
8. Analytical
