Life Is A Mirror
In the truth of the ultimate reality,
there is no other.
All is one.
All of life is a funhouse mirror,
showing me all of the
brilliant facets of who I am.
When I feel rejected,
it is me, rejecting myself.
When I feel abandoned,
it is me, abandoning myself.
Over and over,
I fought the reflection
I saw in the mirror of life
until I realized
that all of my issues with others
and all of my issues with the world
are merely information
about what is happening inside of me…
the mirror shows me the dynamic
I have with myself
and with life.
When I recognized this fully,
I stopped fighting the mirror.
Instead of fighting,
I turn toward the parts of me
that are still immersed in fear,
and I offer them the love
that they have been longing for.
This work heals my life.
In the truth of the ultimate reality,
there is no other.
All is one.
