"Know thyself" is an ancient Greek ("gnōthi seauton") and Latin ("nosce te ipsum") aphorism or saying concerning self-knowledge and self-improvement.

Jesus said heal thyself in Luke 4:23
What is the most important thing to us, words, or looks, do we have a clear understanding of what has the most influence on our ability to know who we are.
I guarantee you that you will have a hard time hearing the words of a person with a disfigured face.
Looks, Words, Feelings.
We are indeed walking and talking chemistry factories feeling our way forward. Our individually separates us from each other inherited similarly.
How we look and think, feel, talk, and acts, becomes who we are. Tom, Dick, and Harry, Jane, Elizabeth, and Carol, are names to the people that we learn to know.
Who
we are and what we do is entirely up to us, our image in many respects
then are made with our own hand. The bible said that god created mankind
in his (god) own image.
The conflict between what we believe about who we are becomes just another mystery getting to know ourselves. Are we people of substance or creatures of superficiality. Or are we advancing gods natural image of who we are, Why do some people simply becoming misfits of what they should have been. Are we going to live up to the standard that we were bore to, or not?

Question: "What does it mean that man is made in the image of God?"
Answer: On the last day of creation, God said, “Let us make man in our image, in our likeness” (Genesis 1:26). Thus, He finished His work with a “personal touch.” God formed man from the dust and gave him life by sharing His own breath (Genesis 2:7). Accordingly, man is unique among all God’s creations, having both a material body and an immaterial soul/spirit.
Having the “image” or “likeness” of God means, in the simplest terms, that we were made to resemble God. Adam did not resemble God in the sense of God’s having flesh and blood. Scripture says that “God is spirit” (John 4:24) and therefore exists without a body. However, Adam’s body did mirror the life of God insofar as it was created in perfect health and was not subject to death.
The image of God refers to the immaterial part of man. It sets man apart from the animal world, fits him for the dominion God intended him to have over the earth (Genesis 1:28), and enables him to commune with his Maker. It is a likeness mentally, morally, and socially.
Mentally, man was created as a rational, volitional agent. In other words, man can reason and man can choose. This is a reflection of God’s intellect and freedom. Anytime someone invents a machine, writes a book, paints a landscape, enjoys a symphony, calculates a sum, or names a pet, he or she is proclaiming the fact that we are made in God’s image.
Morally, man was created in righteousness and perfect innocence, a reflection of God’s holiness. God saw all He had made (mankind included) and called it “very good” (Genesis 1:31). Our conscience or “moral compass” is a vestige of that original state. Whenever someone writes a law, recoils from evil, praises good behavior, or feels guilty, he is confirming the fact that we are made in God’s own image.
Socially, man was created for fellowship. This reflects God's triune nature and His love. In Eden, man’s primary relationship was with God (Genesis 3:8 implies fellowship with God), and God made the first woman because “it is not good for the man to be alone” (Genesis 2:18). Every time someone marries, makes a friend, hugs a child, or attends church, he is demonstrating the fact that we are made in the likeness of God.
Part of being made in God’s image is that Adam had the capacity to make free choices. Although he was given a righteous nature, Adam made an evil choice to rebel against his Creator. In so doing, Adam marred the image of God within himself, and he passed that damaged likeness on to all his descendants (Romans 5:12). Today, we still bear the image of God (James 3:9), but we also bear the scars of sin. Mentally, morally, socially, and physically, we show the effects of sin.
The good news is that when God redeems an individual, He begins to restore the original image of God, creating a “new self, created to be like God in true righteousness and holiness” (Ephesians 4:24). That redemption is only available by God’s grace through faith in Jesus Christ as our Savior from the sin that separates us from God (Ephesians 2:8-9). Through Christ, we are made new creations in the likeness of God (2 Corinthians 5:17).

The
people who becoming hurt over the way that they think other people feel
about them is the wrong reaction to who they really are. Because they
truly are what they do, and it doesn't really matter what someone else
thinks about them, to themselves.
If you are a sinner, than you need to repent, that's the way to paradise.
Matthew 4:17: From that time Jesus began to preach and to say, “Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.”
So we come back to the beginning again:

I know spring practice is going on and all that and I'm sure Miles and Co. will have us prepared for TCU come the fall, but right now, it's baseball season and this team is proving to be really something special.
I won't make any guarantees or anything outrageous like that, but I will say that this is probably the most talent Mainieri has had on a team since 2009.
All I'm saying is that it's time to jump on the bandwagon right now just passed the halfway point of the season.
You do it too late (say around the SEC tournament) and you will just look ignorant and extremely fake as a fan. Please get over the stigma that baseball is a boring sport because this team has a speedy and powerful offense and we have one of the better 1-2 punches on the mound in Nola and Eades.
Basically, we are raping teams with a big cactus (or a chainsaw if you prefer).
Bottomline, this team is really good and you guys need to get on board.
