Personality

Pretty much everyone who knows me knows I'm mildly obsessed with personality tests (administering them to my stuffed animals and the like--for instance, Lambie is an INFP, like me). Today I was thinking about the word personality itself. It's so literal. Personality: it's your, you know, person-ness. I like that.

I also like that it's a compliment to say that someone has personality. I like that it accepts, but does not fetishize, one's defects.
