An intimate relationship is a mirror. To grow yourself into a more healthy relationship turn on your super-power of spiritual double-vision and gaze clear-eyed into the mirror. With one eye see the other person as the spiritual being that they are, on their own path, having their own life. With that eye look with detachment, compassion, and love. With the other eye see the reflection of your own self – the parts you don’t like or your lack of self-worth. With this eye look with a willingness for self-awareness, compassion, and love. Allow the mirror to clearly reveal to you your beauty and your fears without judgment or shame. This will allow you to see the beauty and fears of your beloved. Then the Mirror becomes a window, a portal, into a deeper Love.
Mirror, Mirror on the Wall
