We Are The Mirrors

I had a very interesting week full of lessons and reflections, Up until this point in my life, I never paid attention to how much Synchronicity life truly has . This week I've been reflecting a lot on my self specifically how my thoughts have manifested things for me. Aside from working as a activities assistant at a senior living facility, I've been assigned to interview residents and ask questions that are provided on the forms to get to know them fully. All the residents I have interviewed end up going completely off topic and developed a real conversation. We had conversations full of questions, worries, love, sadness, fears, doubt, openness, fun, even funny conversations. Getting into the mind and feelings of someone who is a stranger but not completely a stranger has brought insight into my life. It's helped me reflect on the person I am today. I too have fears, doubts, love, compassion, fun, sadness, worries, dreams.

In the process of hearing and understanding where people are coming from in there life stories hearing about things they've accomplished and things they wish they'd done. what makes them happy and things they feel they lack. I learn more about myself just by being of service to others. Everything this week has been a reflection. Everything I think, do, say, speak into affirmation is mirroring me back. I always believed I had to be something special to be loved, I never thought I could be loved with all my flaws. I'm learning that I need to love my flaws because it is that part of myself that relates me to humanity. Along with all the love and good things that I'm able to express. I'm starting to understand that we all carry stuff let's say baggage, but to enjoy the moments that we have left with the ones we love matter most because nothing in life is guaranteed. Whenever a negative thought or old belief appears in my life, I am learning to acknowledge it and give my self an affirmation of kind words to focus on. This week has been one of self love; "I love myself, I am worthy of love," along with a prayer that I will take care of my body, mind and soul. I want to look in the eyes of Love which is what I call God. When you respond in the eyes of love not only are you giving yourself permission to feel what your feeling, your giving yourself permission to let others do the same.

I'm grateful for the conversations I've been having with others and for people allowing me to go into there homes and tell me personal stories about there journey, it has truly been a blessing. Seeing myself in everyone I meet has brought me more love and more connection. Today, I no longer hold onto old beliefs of needing love and approval, because I can give that to myself. Only we have the power to change the eyes in which we see.

Love always, Iman
