After reflections by both myself and forum members on here considering my own thoughts and my posts respectively, i've been seriously considering some sort of Ni dominant. But i see conflicting speculations on what Ni really is, besides it being of a temporally-aware nature. And i feel like people have different interpretations of this time-awareness.
I've always been very interested in the historicity of everything, and have sought out the roots of something to determine it's influences on me and the things i think about it. This has led me to search out the oldest, or earliest exapmple of all my interests, i've been interested in ancient civilizations, ancient modes of thought specifically. I find the roots of something more useful than the isolated outcome i'm presently investigating, that is to say, the presence of something has no value without the historicity or roots of the thing. This also applies to the origins of life, or my own thoughts. I think about how i've thought to determine how i really think today, i search for trends in my thinking. I've always been overwhelmingly mental and closed off in my head, so much that my parents had trouble communicating with me when it didn't concern my current, focused interest. I have a melancholicity concering the past, while it endlessly fascinates me, i also feel familiar and at home in it.
Besides my obvious ''type me'' attitude in this post, what do you people think of the different understandings of time, considering the different IE's?
