Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
I think it is possible to overcome it and recognize people (and anything outside of our self) as being more than our ideas and our limited understanding!.!.!.
but I agree that we tend to confuse our ideas of things with the things or people themselves!.

I think it takes trust and self-sacrifice in a way to put others above our determination of what they are or should be!. but that is necessary for building relationships i think!. Www@QuestionHome@Com

It's just natural for us to live within our own heads!. Think about it, we live in our minds and see things through our own eyes!. Many people live their whole lives not wondering what other people see or feel in comparison to our own thoughts and visions!. It's just a mindstate we are born into, and yes it is an insecure feeling to know we are not "special" and are in fact just another being!. It's just partially a matter of thinking outside of the box, or open mindedness!. And yes we are only ideas to each other in a sense, so what we see and feel is absolute truth, and it's the only truth we can truthfully feel!. Www@QuestionHome@Com
