Knows you as you are

A friends is one that knows you as you are, understands where you have been, accepts what you have become, and still, gently allows you to grow. ~~Willian Shakespeare

Hi,

Does "as you are" in the above mean "the way//what you are?"

Besides, are there more to "understands whre you have been" in the above than meet the eyes?

Thanks.
