[quote="notarose"]Talk of depth has prompted me to reflect on what that means to me.
Depth:
- a person of depth knows who they are (strengths & flaws) and has self love. They spend more time reflecting on who they are than judging others. They make changes to self if they want to rather than requiring others to change or be swayed by a need to be liked outside their circle of caring (family & friends)
- they have awareness that their control lies in their own actions rather than the actions of others therefore use "I" more often than "you"
- their highest expection is of themselves - less so on others - therefore they are motivated to act and in the case of others merely respond rather than attempt to control
- contemplative and self reflective: the onus is on the individual to self govern his/her own happiness by taking action & responsibility
- sees failure as necessary learning experience and is adept at adjusting and tweaking based on past failure
- avoids pettiness and finds it challenging to tolerate beyond small doses
- champions their own ideology even in company that is known to be hostile: anti-bullying, equal rights to marriage, views on sex & intimacy, etc. They see platforms for the big picture issues where others don't.
- they say their truths knowing they may be unpopular because they have conviction
- they debate/discuss rather than label/argue
- they possess a sense of wonder rather than a need to be right therefore continually adding to their warehouse of self knowledge and sense of the world at large
- where someone else may be looking to valid their view, a person of depth is curious as to whether their view is valid. They grow their view instead of being singular.
- they are often labelled philosophical and see the world through a different lens

They come from all walks of life, all socio-economic circumstance, all educational backgrounds. The deeper they are, the more different they appear to those who are less like them. In some Native American Indian circles an albino is considered sacred. It's appearance is a sign of change... a paradigm shift. A person of depth is like an albino but also a shape shifter in that they are not always recognized by others on the walk of life. If recognized, he/she will change the landscape to some degree. If recognized, he/she will make others think ... even against their desire to do so.
Everyone has some degree of depth however if people like Nick weren't an exception than they wouldn't be fodder for criticism or comteplation by the status quo.
Those that have depth as a [i]prime[/i] trait have survived through childhood to become adults well aware that others mind, and they older they are the more emotionally prepared they are to persevere in being themselves. They have built resiliency from experiences where they have been challenged.
