This is more about friendship and acquantaince relationships than a romantic/sexual one. I have always been interested in how one assesses situations at hand.

I find that when two people are communicating there are two sets of reflections being shown. When one is at a loss for how the other has arrived at their ability to express a notion, it can create a little turbulance in the discussion. For if one knows themself well and has came to terms with who they truly are and why, then it becomes easier to recognize the need to not take another's words too personally. One can bet that if a reflection is being displayed, then it's source is one or both of the people involved. Further, if one knows that it does not belong to them, then it must belong to the other person.

We each can only speak of that which we know, in some way, shape, or form...

I think you are correct. I have seen it many times on these boards. Most disagreements start on this premise and escalate from there.

The key word to me was, one who knows themself.

There is a better understanding of life and most situations. Able to look beyound whats infront of them, but respecting the other.
