I have been through a lot in my life and I would like to think I know myself pretty well. How other's perceive me and my friends has helped me to discover what kind of a person am I too. I know my strong and weak points and also know my limitations. But until now I am still learning new things about myself every day . Discovering myself and learning new things has helped me to understand myself better.

Hi Lakota, I for one don't give compliments without meaning it... if someone gave you a compliment accept it graciously coz it was given to you wholeheartedly. Asking for compliments is a different thing though....

This is an interesting post because I for one have never really gave this much thought and really now that you bring to my attention I think it probably wouldn't hurt for everyone to give this type of thing some attention. I think I know myself fairly well, but there's always room to learn.

Hi Grandmaof2, I was thinking of a topic to post here... and this question just pop into my mind... I think that we should know ourself first to understand better who we are and what we are.What we show others is what we want them to perceive us. But is that who we really are??

I hear ya there. I'd like to think that I know myself very well and more than others. I think only a person would know himself or herself more than someone else knowing him or her better. People think that they know me better than myself but I doubt that at all.

My friend told me that people who know me more than others is i myself. So, till now, i am still in searching about myself. the question about "who am i" is still relevant for me.

It's good that you try to know yourself more... Keep it up.
