THE PUBLIC SELF

Is a part of ourselves that we
are happy to share with others
and discuss openly.
THE PRIVATE SELF
There are things which are too
private to share with others.
We hide these away and

other people.

The view with our self is not

perceive us. Our blind self
may remain blind because
others will not discuss this
