I cant remember a keyword to bring up the quote that has given me the greatest insight into your query here Matt, but it goes something like "The first separation of self, is with the self". What added extra depth for me was this rhetorical question posed by Scott Mandelker, "How much do you love the truth?".
So for me the heart of what makes anyone truly STS is that refusal, or denial to face their own deepest fears. To me the LHP means there will always be someone more powerful than yourself. You will never be more (at least in this life) than a small cog in a highly organised machine. A "machine" is an apt metaphor to describe power seekers (as opposed to truth seekers) as a machine does not require a heart in order to function. It requires programming.
So in truth, the heart sends out oxygenated blood to where it is needed most in the body, and this is the natural way, the path that is. The path that is not does the opposite, in that it funnels the oxygenated blood up its programmers, leaving its lesser portions to compete for what little is left.
This meme speaks to the inherent simplicity of the STO path.
Although I recognise I may be wrong here, I still remain convinced that an STS individual will never look into the eyes of an STO individual. The truth is too powerful to behold IMHO.
