Observations from my Mirror friend

Posted 08-21-2009 at 05:05 AM by LookinForMayberry


Today I got a chance to look in my mirror, and like Snow White's step mother, it spoke. The points it made were not pretty, but worth scrutiny. I don't agree with them all, but there is enough truth given that I do take them to heart, and promise to at least try to wake up.

My mirror's reflection ("you" changed to "I" or "me" for my own use, to be certain I am applying these to me and not another):
  • Stop looking outside myself and take a good look at the cause of my guilt.
  • Understand why the main point of my guilt was that I never thought about others that I hurt.
  • I am constantly complaining about things that don't even matter.
  • I don't speak up and say I would prefer not to do something
  • I make myself feel better by hurting others
  • I act like a spoiled brat and a child.
  • I am not getting any younger or any more attractive.
  • I need to take a good long hard look in the mirror and decide if I am worthy to be as blessed as I am.
  • It is time for a little humility on my part.
  • It is time for I to see the good in every situation and push away my ego, my past and the bad things.
  • It is at least time for me to respect my DH for all he does for me.
  • I have a lot to loose if I don't step outside of myself and wake up.
For an unedited listing of my faults, read the comments under my blog on Guilt.
