How can I not try to fit someone into a box?  We were reminded Sunday that our view of God is very limited- we try to limit him to the pool in our backyard, yet he's bigger than all of the oceans in the world combined!  I can see more now why Jesus came as a man.  If He hadn't, then how much more clueless would we be of how to live, or what's expected of us?

When I've been meeting new people lately, it's very hard not to box them, either.  The way I understand the world and someone's place in it is through the ideas and concepts of those I've already met.  For example, I could compare new person A with Amber's athletic and dramatic abilities, so-in-so's sense of humor, and his-or-hers look.  How can I start from scratch?

It's intriguing to me that there are always new things to learn.  I don't know why that is, seeing that there's no way possible for me to even know a fraction of what's going on in the world, but still, it is an interesting experience to get stretched and confused and have no clue how to respond to or make sense of a situation/person.

I can't even understand or completely know myself, so how could I think I can of another (person)?  That doesn't discourage me from trying, though.
