Life is a Mirror!
!
April 6, 2016!
You start the journey of life with a blank slate or tabula rasa
along with unknown genetics passed on from parents or their
parents. Life rolling on, reflects who you are and have been with
few exceptions. Most people in this country have the ability to
be who they see or imagine themselves as, with the main
stumbling block being the barriers they foster within. Life is a
road, a pathless path, until you decide the road path you want to
be on. Mirrors come in all kinds of clearness in addition to conditions of light in which they are viewed. Those
conditions are akin to the clarity within you. !
!
The first path is the one you have absorbed and chosen within voluntarily or not, and how you are going to have it
serve you. Doesn’t matter how negative or positive it is, you do what you have to do to assist it in serving how you see
yourself. You are at the controls, even if it has been given over to circumstances that you choose to be attached to,
and limit your journey. Life is like a ladder to climb to greater altitudes or attitudes into consciousness, except the
ladder goes both ways. !

Listening to someone the other day talk about women, I’m reminded of an example of a mirror of who you are at the
moment. That reminder over the years is occasionally hearing men’s camaraderie chatter about women that is often
grouping all women together as being emotional wrecks, or some second class citizens to avoid. This is their
experience because these types are mirrors of who ‘they are’. There are many, many
people who are nothing less than an art form for the ages, but unless your vibration is
equivalent, you are not likely to meet them for more
than a passing moment. !
!
Never underestimate yourself. You know more than
you say, think more than you speak, and notice more
than you realize. Wipe the mirror of who you seem to
be, for even the clearest window needs cleaning.
Letting go of attachments that don’t feel loving is that
‘wiping the mirror’.!
!
Do Not... shut love out of your life by saying it is
impossible to find. The quickest way to receive love is
to give love. !
The fastest way to lose love is to hold it too tightly, or most likely, to ignore that it is within you, but needs nurturing.
Focus on the road ahead, and not on the rear view mirror of negatives that clouds the view of the positive light.
Remember, life is like a movie. In a relationship, the mirror is your partner. You are the writer, director, producer, actor,
stage hand, etc., and not less important, the audience. Be the watcher too!!
