"The best and worst humanity offers"

Due to recent events in my life I have developed an overwhelming desire to achieve self discovery. I know. . . you may be thinking, "What on earth is she talking about?" All my life I have had this innate desire to be known and understood. Not just surface feel good stuff, but really known. "How I like my potatoes and what kind of toothpaste I use." (A Mirror Has Two Faces) I have had a personal epiphany that if I want others to understand me, it may be beneficial to understand myself.

In my quest I have been reading every book I can get my hands on to understand how I communicate or how to communicate better, how to connect in relationships, what drives me, how do I make decisions, why to I make the choices I make? Has my past shaped my future? Oooo! Deep questions. I don't know if I have simply frustrated myself more or if I am really making progress in my new path to self discovery.

This is what I have discovered from my most recent read:

"I am a highly complex individual with many extremes. The best and worst humanity has to offer. I have such influential strengths and debilitating limitations." (Dr. Hartman's, The People Code) How do you like them apples? Basically, The People Code is the color code book, aka the Red, Blue, Yellow and White personality test. My core personality is blue, but I have two strong secondary personalities. How do you have more than one personality? Now you know why I am "complex with many extremes".

I don't think of you as a multiple color personality disorder. More of a rainbow of interests and experiences. You are awesome.
