If you want to know more about yourself, look at your friends. Think of them as a mirror. They reflect pieces of yourself — your characteristics, interests, strengths, weaknesses, moods. Looking into that friendship mirror will reveal a realistic view of yourself, so examine it carefully. The mirror will provide clues of your emotional makeup that may not otherwise be available. It’s up to you to decide if you like the reflection projected back from your friends. But if you want to grow as a person and enhance the positive qualities in your life and eliminate the negative ones, the friendship mirror will be your greatest natural resource to help you do this. Rememer, old friends are the best mirror of who you are.
This is a great piece of advice Chuck.

Thanks, Colleen. I must admit, though, I have a couple of friends that make me a little squeamish to view them in the mirror. (I’m smiling)
