How well do you know you?

Since we spend our whole lives in one piece of skin, it’s often hard to gain knowledge about us. Stepping outside our frame of reference takes courage and practice. Sometimes an upheaval occurs that forces us to look inward.

Do you make a make an attempt to see yourself as others do? Have you had any surprises thereby?

I am far from perfect, and I do try to see myself occasionally from a third-party perspective. I know I have limitations, but I am surprised how little I know about me. I was once quite surprised after a stage performance at how lost I was in the character. It was cathartic.
