#MyReflections Friday 2/13/15 day 1460
Humbled by my scarred/burned feet (so to speak). They are a reminder that I walked through hell and made it out. Humbled by my scarred and healing heart. It is a reminder that I loved through hell and I made it out!
Your Perspective, is Just YOUR Reality...Not Necessarily the Truth.
When we meet people, we will experience them through the filter of our perspective which is formed by the reality of our personal experiences. We will not meet them for (or as who) they truly are. We filter/ perceive them based on our superficial / biased experience of them. In our relationships w/ them ( platonic, romantic or otherwise) we continue to experience them that way... Often times never ever getting to KNOW them for who they REALLY are....
What I'm learning and what Im just now REALLY understanding is this...
Anytime that anyone does anything...They are doing the best that they can ( or know to do) at that time. Just like you or I. Learning and understanding this, allows me to navigate this world better because I don't always feel like ppl are "trying" to rub me the wrong way or hurt me. They are usually JUST being themselves and operating at their highest level ( even if its the highest level of their lower selves). Because I perceive them a certain way (through the filter or my personal experiences... ) I assume certain things that in return shape "my" reality of them that is essentially, false.
The goal...
As long as I'm walking in my truth, NOT operating from my personal matrix, showing true compassion and turning the mirror back on myself... I will fully be able to experience the true spirit of a person. Otherwise, I just wont and most likely I will experience simply a reflection of myself...( good or bad).
* We are a Reflection and extension of one another. So if I know that I am the universe having a human experience... So too can I understand that you are doing the same. As a result, I can allow you to be who you are completely and experience you with no filter.
I am not trying to be deep, just speaking my current truth.

Absolutely resonating with this perspective, it just feels so good to view it this way, knowing ‘all’ are divinely protected at the end of the day..💜
This brings me back into the thought process of the shadow work class. The perspective of your 'mirror's already limits what you can see through that lens. However remembering the process of NOT breaking the mirror gives your self reflection an opportunity to see the projections we push on others. Ase queen and thank for all you present as information for us through your example of life! I love you, I like you, I life you.
ASÉ 💜 this is beautiful
