i dont think we are what we think we are.. atleast some people. some people think theyre the sh*t and theyre not. some people dont realize how cool we are to be human beings.

Yes we are made

All 3, along with past experiences

we are something in between

Technically what people think of us is more than what we think we are, since the world doesn't revolve around one person,
I think It would be best to better yourself, and to start by not caring what people think.

We are guided by our interpretations (thoughts and emotions), so while we may not be made of these things, we certainly are confined by them.

you should see what we think we are, but some people rely to much on what others thinks then worry about it.

I think Neil Degrasse Tyson said it best when he said, "We are quite literally made of stardust." Much more poetic.

Our existence is defined by the waves we make in this world. The only way those waves can be measured is by how other people perceive them. If that means we are made of other people's perceptions then so be it.

As long as you don't let those perceptions guide your actions. You may be made of them, but never forget who makes them.

Physically we are flesh,oxygen,blood,water,bone,muscle,etc...
Basically just a vessel for our spirit until the day it leaves our body spiritually.Good enough?

huh? SAY WAT?

The power of the human mind is: you are exactly what you believe you are. If you believe you are a coward that's what you are. Believe yourself to be powerful and strong, and you shall be. It's not a matter of what you think, afterall, a thought is not necessarily viable to yourself. If you believe in that thought, that belief becomes your reality.

we are made of our personality. whether it is what people think of us or ourselves. do we believe because its real, or is it real cause we believe? its only what you believe that make us...us.

We are made of both, but mainly what we naturally are. We can't change ourselves by saying an opinion that is completely opposite of what we really are, so, we are made by what nature made us.

try to treat that way

We are made of what people think of us. From day one, we define ourselves relative to the culture around us. The glass in the mirror only shows distortions. We will never be able to "think we are."
That would be way too natural.

We are nothing without others. Consider this possibility.. there is no one to consider us ..we are not considered and that which is not considered does not exist.
Man alone it the world. does not communicate, does not think, does not love, does not ..... what? anything.

So we are what we think others think we are.
When I look in the mirror I see myself looking back and when I look in your eyes I also see myself looking back .. I am therefore what you see. I am your mirror.
Quick silver!

i guess in a literal sense, we are made of wat we think people think of us. Check tha bible and astronomy
"what are humans made of?" they'll give u both indepth descriptions. makes u think: if no one told us wat we were,would we matter as human beings?
When i look in tha mirror, I see influences from society. but at tha same time, tha importance of individuality plays a big role
