Mirror, Mirror On the Wall...

While browsing the web I found this very interesting psychological tool - Johari Window. It is commonly use to assess how well an individual can relate to others. Try it and see how well you knew your self :)

Known to others and known to self
Most of the people I knew consider me a quiet and introvert person and I absolutely agree with them. I don't like to talk too much and whenever I have some time to unwind I prefer to stay home. My definition of fun and enjoyment - to stay home and read a good book while enjoying a cup of freshly brewed coffee (puwede na din ang instant...hehehe) with matching slice of a scrumptious chocolate cake!

Known to others and not known to self
Some say that I am snobbish, very reserve and serious. But the truth is I am not. I maybe serious but only when it comes to making a decision. Maybe because I am a homebody type of person and I am quiet that's why some thought I am reserve. Snobbish...definitely not! I have a very bad eyesight thus I can't recognise a person from a far but that doesn't mean I am unfriendly.

Not known to others and known to self
I am a great observer and a clown. Ask my mother and she will surely agree ;)

Not known to others and not known to self
Duh...of course I don't have a clue!

A Beautiful Prayer...

Oh creator of all things, help me. For this day I go
out into the world naked and alone, and without
your hand to guide me I will wander far from the
path which leads to success and happiness.

I ask not for gold or garments or even opportunities
equal to my ability; instead, guide me so that I
may acquire ability equal to my opportunities.

You have taught the lion and the eagle how to hunt
and prosper with teeth and claw. Teach me how to
hunt with words and prosper with love so that I
may be a lion among men and an eagle in the market place.

Help me to remain humble through obstacles and failures;
yet hide not from mine eyes the prize that
will come with victory.

Assign me tasks to which others have failed; yet
guide me to pluck the seeds of success from their failures.
Confront me with fears that will temper
my spirit; yet endow me with courage to laugh at my misgivings,

Spare me sufficient days to reach my goals; yet
help me to live this day as though it be my last.

Guide me in my words that they may bear fruit;
yet silence me from gossip that none be maligned.

Discipline me in the habit of trying and trying again;
yet show me the way to make use of the law of averages.
Favor me with alertness to recognize opportunity;
yet endow me with patience which will concentrate my strength.

Bathe me in good habits that the bad ones may
drown; yet grant me compassion for weaknesses in others.
Suffer me to know that all things shall pass;
yet help me to count my blessings of today.

Expose me to hate so it not be stranger;
yet fill my cup with love to turn strangers into friends.

But all these things be only if thy will.
I am a small and lonely grape clutching the vine yet
thou hast made me different from all others.
Verily, there must be a special place for me.
Guide me. Help me. Show me the way.

Let me become all you planned for me when my
seed was planted and selected by you to sprout
in the vineyard of the world.
