We hold our conceptions of ourselves, others, and all of life in our minds.  We make decisions based on our conceptions.  The limitation that occurs is there is so much we do not know.  There are the things we know and the things we don’t’ know.  There are also things we do not know that we do not know.  How’s that for a tongue twister?  The way we discover what we do not know that we do not know is through relationships.  In living life, we engage in experiences with ourselves and others which shed light on qualities about ourselves.  In essence, one could argue that all of life is about discovering who we are.  We can get stuck in thinking the qualities we have discovered are about or attached to the experience or the person with whom we are interacting but that is not the case. We are the ones who are forming new conceptions.  What we bring to any moment in life is a part of ourselves.  Without realizing it we have a desire to connect to more qualities that make up the whole of who we are.  It makes life one big process of exploration.  We have little idea of what we are capable of given our known qualities.  It isn’t until we are experimenting in this thing called life that we come across qualities of ourselves we did not know we have.  We learn how to use or how not to use them and our conception of ourselves and life grows.  Our heart with its encoded courage longs to show us more of our grand design if we are willing to admit we do not know what we do not know about ourselves. Humility is our guide to discovering the qualities known in our hearts that our minds are dying to know.
