We started out with a combination of ingredients that made us different from our brothers and sisters.
Over the years people have chiselled on us, chipped, hammered, sanded, and buffed.
Just when we thought we were finished products; someone would start shaping us up again. Occasionally we’d enjoy a day in the park, when we everyone who passed by admired us and stroked us, but at other times we were ridiculous, analysed, or ignored.

See the beauty in others.
We were all born with our own temperament traits, our raw material, our own kind of rock. Some of us are granite, some marble, some alabaster, some sandstone. Our type of rock doesn’t change, but our shapes can be altered. So, it is with our personalities. We start with our own set of inborn traits. Some of our qualities are beautiful with strains of gold. Some are blemished with fault lines of gray. Our circumstances, IQ, nationality, economics, environment, and parental influence can mould our personalities, but the rock underneath remains the same.
“Some of our qualities are beautiful with strains of gold. Some are blemished with fault lines of gray.”
My temperament is the real me; my personality is the dress I put on over me. I can look in the mirror in the morning and see a plain face, straight hair, and a bulgy body. That’s the real me. Gratefully, within an hour I can apply makeup to create a colourful face; I can plug in the curling iron to fluff up my hair; and I can put on a flattering dress to camouflage too many curves. I’ve taken the real me and dressed it up, but haven’t permanently changed what’s underneath.
Just be yourself.
If only we could understand ourselves:
Know what we’re made of
Know who we really are
Know why we react as we do
Know our strength and how to amplify them
Know our weaknesses and how to overcome them
