Know
Define and Describe
To know someone is to understand them, understand their point of view, or try to understand their point of view. The text suggested that there or three key components, intimacy equals Talk (mutual self-disclosure) plus Togetherness (diversified experiences) plus Time. Although these three threads in the fabric of knowing someone may seem obvious, it is amazing how many people neglect one or more of them. Van Epp, J. (2007). Know is to be aware or acquire knowledge through investigation, observation, or information. Knowing is the process of
developing and having a definition of someone through conversing and giving time to them. Van Epp examined the process of knowing someone using the Know-Quo (Epp, 2007).
To know, is to be aware of through observation, inquiry, or information, applying that knowledge to a relationship is to have developed a relationship with a person through meeting and spending time with them, to be familiar or friendly with them. a person can know a person from just how they look but you can also know a person based on their personality, that comes when you form a relationship with someone. Gospel
The best way to know something is to seek answers and guidance from the Lord, the Lord will lead us in the right direction when we are seeking answers about something we are unsure about. When we are becoming involved in a relationship and we question ourselves if that
person is really right for us, we put our faith to the test and seek answering from our Heavenly Father for answers to things we want to know. For God doth know that on the day ye eat thereof, then your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as gods, knowing good and evil. (Genesis 3:5).

I can apply this dimension to my life by getting to know my husband more as we age ad grow in our marriage. although my husband and i have been together for 16 years now and i would say that we know each other fairly well. but with time comes age, in different stages in your life it will change, it is my job to understand and know the changes that come with my marriage. that is what keep a marriage happy and thriving. applying the know dimension to my relationship with my children is very important as well, knowing what they are going through and how they are feeling in different stages in their life is important. It will help our minds grow as well as theirs when we have an open communication with one another.
