Below are some things that can be a pointer into knowing who the person is, but I say yet again, none of these points should be taken as a whole, none can tell all about who a person is, but all of them should be dully considered to be really helpful. Enjoy reading.
Temperament: A person’s temperament make up goes a long way in knowing the type of person she or he is, the point is not in trying to know the temperament of everyone you come across, but if you are planning to share the rest of your life with someone, understanding the person’s temperament is not a bad idea. People do things for different reason, and people also do things as a result of their personality, you should not expect the same response from a sanguine person and a melancholic person, these people are at d far edge of their temperamental make up, not all people that talks to every Dick, Tom and Harry are kind at heart and not everyone one that keep to self at all time are wicked or unkind. No one is born with a good and enviable character, they are developed and a person’s temperament doesn’t make him at odd in these things, it only means they think differently, respond to issues differently and deal with issues differently. We all have our weaknesses and strength, and these weaknesses are better dealt with and strengths and potentials utilized when they are well known. But then, it must be noted that even our temperaments are not so pure, they most time have been affected and influenced by our background and experiences, a Sanguine who is the most outspoken for example may have learnt to control himself in talking so much that you may take him for an introvert, but look deep, there will always be some things that will give away who he really is.
The Family : Family, as we have been taught is the first agent of socialization, some things we do today, some stuffs we believe in were impacted in us by our family, when I say family, I do not just mean the people we share the same blood with, but I mean the people we grow together with, the people we know at the morning or the dawn of life. The family is the first mirror of the society we see, the family present life to us, and for a long time, if not forever, we tend to take this with us wherever we go; therefore, it is normal that most of our ideals and values are what our family has built into us when we are growing up. It is right to say the family isn’t wholly responsible for some things that we do or belief in, for example, we have seen some people from a very religious background later becoming an atheist, or some that were raised by parents that were apolitical later becoming politically active all through their adult life, but this is the point, while we may not carry all the values we might have picked from our family, we tend to take some with us wherever we go, especially those that bothers on family. For example, most men that are abusive in a relationship today were brought up by abusive fathers, from their family, they have learnt that women are to be submissive and one way to make them submissive is assaulting them physically and verbally, in fact, some women see men that are not abusive as abnormal, why? They have been taught their men beat them out of love and affection, so they carry this wherever they go, ever heard this before, ‘if you want to know the type of wife your girlfriend will be, go look at her mother’.
Kinda long a bit right? Not yet over, hoping to see you next time. Your comments are dear and precious.
