So did I. I always instinctivly look beyond the everyday surface of a person to the depths which in my vision of reality is God or the equivalent, but shining through a facet of the whole. Like we're all differently coloured panes of glass so reflect the light differently.
Though it's not so much what I set out to do, I intuitively see them like that, I can't help it usually. Warning -this can be dangerous! I have had to become much more aware of coming up against people's ego defences when I expected their real selves. Though sometimes this has almost been in spite of themselves; I have seen enough of the real displayed in them, to know it is just fear that stops them.

At an E-gram conference, I said I didn't think I was more special than anyone else(to a group of other fours) because I see everyone as special. The special thing about Fours I suppose is that they know they're special, although sometimes I wonder if it's just an inferiority complex manifesting. As an adopted child I was always told I was 'special' and I knew it meant, ' it doesn't matter about you being adopted; that doesn't make you bad.' So it was a perceived negative posing as a positive.
