I have been thinking about this one; I guess the most important person I need to uderstand me is.....yep! You got it, good ole' me! I feel that as I am understanding myself I do not need external validation as much! I used to feel so misunderstood, paticularly in intimate relationships, and my need for validation was unhealthy.
As I uncover the life events that have directed my behaviour's and attitudes, I feel less misunderstood, because I understand why I do some things. Therefore, I tend to look less for external validation in order to ascertain whether how I feel or what I think is correct/rational.
I am understanding me and I am understanding of myself.
