Life is a funhouse. Mirrors are everywhere. What is it that you see?
Reflections of ourselves are every direction we look. Give yourself the great gift of honesty. There are times when I realize despite continual efforts I am judging. More often than not, those judgements are a clear reflection of me. Therefore, it is up to me to do the changing. When you see something you don’t like, change it.

“Be the change you want to see in the world.”  ~Mahatma Gandhi

When something is bugging you about another take the judgement off of them, and send the person love from your heart- imagining your love touching and warming them. Now take a look at how you can change to do better in your own life.

Once you become keenly aware of the mirror effect, you realize what it is in your life that requires a change in perspective. When I find myself slipping into judgment I notice what it is I’m doing that I don’t like. Sometimes a self pep-talk such as “Cut it out!” really helps turn things around.

If what you see is becoming more beautiful with a better sense of ease, you’ll know you are on your way to treating yourself with the love and kindness you deserve. The more you treat yourself with love and kindness, the more you treat others with the same love and kindness, including children and loved ones.

Stop and look in the mirrors around you. Is the reflection of love and light?

Life is a funhouse. Scary or funny, dark or beautiful- you can change it into whatever you wish! *~*

Hey Wendy,

I totally agree. Life could be anything we want it to be.
The other day when I was walking my dog in the park I was complaining about the trash that was scattered all over the place.
And as I caught myself bitching about the mess I realized that I can do something about it. So I started picking up all waste I could find in that particular area. Now, the park looked better, I felt better and went about my day.

so true.
We gotta take responsibility for our own life.

Happy Holidays!

Wonderful post, Wendy!

You challenge us to ask this question of ourselves: "Stop and look in the mirrors around you. Is the reflection of love and light?" I can't think of a more insightful question to consider. We should memorize that question and get into the habit of asking ourselves that profoundly simple question every day, all the time. The world would be such a better place. But our personal lives can be so much better too.

Hope your Christmas was all you hoped it would be!
