no, i believe i was evaluated as a child, my mother thinks it has something to do with my father because he had a very violent nature.

Ah, well its good that you learned to avoid being violent. Its hard to undo the things that we have been taught, sometimes it seems like it is harder than undoing the things we were born with. But as longs as the end remains the same the way we got there isn't that big of a deal. :thumbsup:

I am still finding out what my nature is.

Kind of in the middle of change right now.

Should be interesting to see where I end up.

This actually is pretty debate, so I'll introduce.....

The Jahari Window. A model to map personality awareness. How you perceive yourself and how others perceive you are totally different!

There are four squares,

Arena -what you know what yourself and what others know about you.

Facade - What is known to you, and not to others

Blind Spot - what is not known to you, but known to others

Unknown - Characteristics you don't know about and others that don't know.

You can see from my window: Interactive Johari Window - yo I am guy's Window

I had my best friend, and girlfriend do my window, and as you can, how I perceive myself, and how others perceive me are totally different!!

Heck we can judge each other lol:

For me life has been a series of trials that end with me finding out more about myself. So I get what you mean

I don't really know though :thumbsup: a lot of my friends who were crazy in their youth became calm when they got older, including myself.

Yeah, as I've gotten older, I've gotten more like my mom, who's very calm. That quality must have served her well in dealing with me as a child and teenager.

I'm a mom now of a 21-year-old. When he was a teenager, he wasn't nearly as much of a handful as I was. He was definitely a smart-alec and a back-talker, but it was manageable. My own mom used to just lean back and laugh when he was in that phase and tell me it was "pay-back time." What goes around comes around, I guess.

Nice so how old is your kid now?

I try to care about stuff, but in the end its just too much. Cause the way I see it you live and you die.

Marking off on people just makes living harder in the final stretch of things. most would call that selfish but i don't care. i just want to live life, make people laugh, and do what i want when i want. if i'm too busy making everyone else happy how will i be happy?

I'm definitely a friendly trickster by nature
i love people and always make sure they are alright
but i cant pass an occasion to make them laugh
or confuse them or make fun of them for the sake of making them realize something

i joke a lot, tease a lot, can be a real asshole,
but im always here when you need me
relaxing and deep breathing are what I usually concentrate on
thats me in a nutshell :rasta:

I consider myself a trustworthy peaceful cannabis enthusiast. I am that I am, I am no judge, I am a man who embraces his existence.
