I think the true form of what we call intelligence, free from enticement or compulsion, is true morality.
For me, what brings intelligence is having the sensitivity of mind, conscious as well as unconscious and of the heart with its extraordinary tentacles of affection,and sympathy. Acting from true intelligence I feel produces true morality. For when true intelligence is operating the right behavior will ensue.

Just my thoughts on the subject this fine Autumn afternoon.
I think that maybe you are both describing "emotional intelligence" and I can understand your description well enough Inthemoment, so thank you.
