Personality Assessment

I recently took the Myer's Briggs Personality test. My result: INFP. These letters stand for: Introverted, Intuitive, Feeling, Perceptive. This is the assessment of my personality... it was kind of scary how right on it was, so I wanted to save it:

"INFPs present a calm, pleasant face to the world. They appear to be tranquil and peaceful to others, with simple desires. The INFP internally feels his or her life intensely. In the relationship arena, this causes them to have a very deep capacity for love and caring which is not frequently found with such intensity in the other types. The INFP does not devote their intense feelings towards just anyone, and are relatively reserved about expressing their inner-most feelings. They reserve their deepest love and caring for a select few who are closest to them. INFPs are generally laid-back, supportive and nurturing in their close relationships. INFPs are usually adaptable and congenial, unless one of their ruling principles has been violated, in which case they stop adapting and become staunch defenders of their values.  With Introverted Feeling dominating their personality, they're very sensitive and in-tune with people's feelings, and feel genuine concern and caring for others. Slow to trust others and cautious in the beginning of a relationship, an INFP will be fiercely loyal once they are committed. With their strong inner core of values, they are intense individuals who value depth and authenticity in their relationships, and hold those who understand and accept their perspectives in especially high regard.
