And absolutely, there are many non-verbal cues of communication that tell a lot about a person. <br /><br />Love Gail<br />peace.....Gailhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11337675996256691215noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7828389555620814846.post-58067431786757418302009-04-23T09:46:00.000-04:002009-04-23T09:46:00.000-04:00Interesting questions.

I do believe that there are many ways to connect with a person and that there are times where we connect on a level that goes beyond what we deem as normal communication. That being said, we still reveal what we desire at some level to reveal.Markhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08237538988856751173noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7828389555620814846.post-28134000158166373882009-04-23T09:22:00.000-04:002009-04-23T09:22:00.000-04:00Hi Molly-\

It is wonderful to have someone so trusting that their sense of you is a view that is real.

Of course they were people who knew me relatively well. But I can see now, that they did not know my true nature, but the nature of the person I play in life. <br /><br />We all play roles, or characters to some extent. It is those roles that become easy to predict. The true nature of our essence is far more elusive when you try to pin it down.C.

See right through them? Maybe…maybe not. But see their core character, detect things in them they think they're hiding…yes. And sometimes it's not so much a case of a person knowing another person better than they know themselves—but that people tend to lie to themselves, to live a fantasy, to give themselves motivations and self-judgments that are simply not true. Occasionally another person my be able to pick up on that…like reading the presence of one thing by understanding the actions of other things. <br /><br />I also think we often present to others what we want them to see in us, and/or what we need to show them to fit in, get our way, motivate, amaze, frighten, etc.<br /><br />In all this, as in all life, there are no blanket statements that apply to all people and situations.Grizz…………https://www.blogger.com/profile/04828454689578685330noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7828389555620814846.post-26163118768955074432009-04-21T17:07:00.000-04:002009-04-21T17:07:00.000-04:00Hi Kartz-

Apart from someone's parents (& siblings), I don't think anyone can know a person *that* well...<br /><br />Profound words... As usual.<br /><br />Peace.

They are always so wrong. I'm really not as complicated as they make out. I wish I was as then it would make me more mysterious?<br /><br />Sometimes I tell them they are wrong - but they don't believe me so, sometimes, I just let them think they have the inside edge on my personality. It seems to make them happy. I guess, to them, it makes them a special person.Andyhttp://www.vandainmilan.comnoreply@blogger.com
