Okay. So every once in awhile I find something I just cannot stand about another person. When I really give it some thought I come to find out this aspect of this other person is somthing i also carry with me. Do you find this to be true about yourself?

Lately I couldn't stand lots of people. I just can't pretend.

Yes there will be times that we think we are clean (I mean no bad actions or doing) and when we look at a person or friend then we see there negative attitude that we thought we don't have,sooner or later you will see you have a dirt in your hands as well(I mean you also do what he/she does)... happens to me

It's called the human element.

I actually said something to someone this week along the same lines. I have found that I will tend to dislike things in others that are in my own personality. Or, as Shakespeare said, "Me thinks he dost protest too much."

I do the same thing. Takes some real honesty to go there.

Sometimes, but sometimes the person is the opposite of me. So either just like me or the opposite. Other people can't win, can they?

That reminds me of people that don't get along because they are "too much alike." I think that I do have things about myself that I wouldn't want to see in others..LOL.

I think if you live long enough you may see those things in others.
