Reflections
REFLECTIONS
Remember when you walked past that mirror and caught a glimpse of your
reflection… but you were too focused on ‘living life’ to stop and admire it?
Were you honestly too busy, or was there some level of subconscious insecurity… a
self imposed tunnel vision…. that drove you to ignore it?
While this moment may seem insignificant, it was precisely at that moment … the
instance when you chose to be oblivious to the beautiful you… that initiated your
demise.
You had no intention to relinquish your confidence… no intention to fumble your oh
so fragile esteem … no intention to forfeit your courage… yet in an instant the plug
was loosened and your inner drain trickled… leaving you ultimately internally
dehydrated of all that defined you.
Maybe you were wrapped up in the common misconception that the only gift this
mirror had to offer was a glorified silhouette… maybe you were momentarily
consumed with physical beauty, therefore this simple act of ignoring your reflection
held no meaning.
We all must stop periodically to soak in the beauty that it us… we all must realize
that being beautiful has nothing to do with being attractive.
Remember when you fell in love because you saw a reflection of you in the eyes of
another?
Ahhhhhh…. There it is!
Please… I urge you all to take time to recollect and acknowledge what makes you
beautiful.
While you may naturally admire another for being seemingly more talented than
you…
You know … that person that always seems to be good at everything he or she
does.
Let your vision not be blurred or skewed… do not associate admiration with envy…
this may lead to internal negativity, causing you to believe that his or her talents
somehow diminish your value or your own self worth.
You, and only you, can deplete your inner core… you must recognize your gift.
IF YOU ARE READING THIS… you have already, possibly unwittingly, begun your re-
awakening… your journey of self discovery.
You have achieved an admirable level of acceptance and depth to appreciate these
words.
You are in touch with your inner energy.
You have allowed yourself to smile from within.
Quite simply… you have consciously become aware of your inner beauty.
