Reflections

We learn from our experience that we dont know ourselves 100%. People sometimes know us better than we know ourselves. They see part of us that we cannot see.. Our projection. While we see part of us that they cannot see.. Our image.

So to know about ourselves better, we ask others. "What do you think about me?" usually people wont tell us what they really feel, not 100%, not directly. there will be some sort of flattery and hidden truths that they hide to not make us feel bad.

Some people like myself can except the truth weather its good or bad, but if it was to be told by the appropriate ways by appropriate people. I can except to be told something bad or good about me by the people i am most close too. They also should tell me one-to-one without others knowing about our conversation. they should also not use high voice tones on me. To me, thats a good advice, and not the release of trapped emotion.

The time to say it is also an important aspect. Tell me when I am fully able to accept it or at least when I am not in a bad mood.
