What is ‘Individuality’ and ‘Personal Differences’?

‘Individuality’ refers to the distinct personality, values, thoughts, emotions, interests and experiences that make each person unique. ‘Personal differences’, on the other hand, are the natural expressions of how people communicate, navigate their lives, make decisions, pursue purposes, and other gestures, feelings and manifestations. In a vibrant partnership, these differences are understood and respected rather than ‘edited out’.
