Do you know yourself?
It is easy to say that you know yourself in terms of what your name is, where are you originally from, what you do for a living, etc. But the question is do you really know yourself??? Is there a point where you say "I really know myself" ??? Is there even a thing as knowing yourself???
I am not talking about taking a personality test or learning about your family history. Neither am I talking about your favourite colours, your best childhood friend or your high school prom experience.
I am talking about something much greater and of higher consequence. We are talking about who you are at your core, what matters the most to you, what makes you come alive, what feeds your soul and what drains your spirit, and how to know the difference so you choose well as you move forward in life.

I so believe there is nothing as knowing yourself we all just adhere to the characters we wanna be
ReplyDeleteYes!! And somehow consider that as knowing ourselves.
DeleteThe humans that say they know themselves they haven't came across with life challenges that are unthinkable in their lives.The concept of not knowing yourself reveals its self on those challenges.
ReplyDeleteYes, in most cases its because we haven't come across challenges that make us question ourselves, question who we are.
DeleteKnowing myself for me is mainly about knowing where you going and where you from
ReplyDeleteThat is what most of us know about ourselves and we sometimes feel that that is enough to know.

ReplyDeleteI think most of us do not understand who we are ,which is the most important thing you should consider in life before making any move ,knowing your self begins where you should know what your heart desires , you do not need anyone to make your self happy ,you could need their support but you won't fall either if you don't get it. stick in knowing who you are ask your self where to go and how to get there and never mind if does this make my friends,family whosoever HAPPY?, never ask your self that kind of a question ...LIVE THE GOOD LIFE .
ReplyDeletei could say a lot about the meaning of life.
You clearly understand what I am talking about here. Knowing yourself is really about that.
DeleteGuilty conscious and the term "comfort zone" are the major things that define who you are. You can feel it when you doing something that's against your own morals or something that doesn't define you because that's when you'll realise the guilt you feel. You know what makes you feel comfortable enough which is why if you've done an extra mile you'll realise that you definitely stepped out of your own comfort zone. We may not really know who we are, but we have those two things which definitely tell us who we are not.
ReplyDeleteEXACTLY! Knowing who you are not, gives you some sort of direction towards knowing yourself, just a little bit.
DeleteKnowing yourself is whereby you don't compare yourself with others, and you not in the competition with anyone you have to run your own race...
ReplyDeleteThat is how you get to know a part of yourself, I agree.
