Some of those things can't be measured unless you're around them all the time over a number of years.

Thus, you have to assume that though you may be better in one area than the next person, they will be better than you in a different area. We all have strengths and weaknesses - whether they are developed to their fullest potential is a different story.[/QB]
I assume that none are better or worse then me, as far as I can tell we all put our pants on the same way, one leg at a time. I contend that skills, strengths, weaknesses, or any attributes whatso ever that we as Humans can measure only make us worth anything, of value to fellow humans. As we humans percieve value. But that is not the worth of a human, the worth of a human was decided nearly 2,000 years ago outside of Jerusalem.

After reading my earlier reply to you Miss Moiraine Ma'am, I must aplogize for forgeting to address you will the proper Miss & Ma'am.
