QotD: Getting to Know You/Me
How well do you think you know yourself? How well do others think they know you? Which is more important?

Over the last five years, I've learned a lot about myself, especially when my Father died. Up until I was about 30, I was only half the man I am today (or just realizing it). I will always continue to learn more about myself, but I do know my strengths and weaknesses. "A Man's got to know his own limitations."
As to my friends, I'm guessing Coates know's me the best and probably know's things about me that I don't know about myself (or see). Ward and Corll would also give a run for their money as well. I'm banking that Amy can out scoop them with a couple things too.
Which is more important? Knowing yourself. It sets the direction on how you act in any situation that life brings. Most importantly, knowing that you constantly have to take time out to observe and reflect.
