Reflexion - Maybe You’re The Mirror
Reflexion - Maybe You’re The Mirror
REFLEXION - Some people are uncomfortable with you because you hold up a mirror to them. That mirror shows them who they wish they were but they are not. It reveals all the potential they have, but they are not going for it. They have unfinished dreams for themselves, but decided not to pursue them.
The reason you are a transparent person, you are genuine, authentic and real. You mean what you say and you say what you mean. Others can be the complete opposite of that, they are coming from a place of deep insecurity. They feel intimidated by how content you are. There preference is to break you up rather than say I admire you and what you have done for yourself. Their insecurity stops them from asking ‘I wish I could learn some of that from you’ or ‘how could you support me in some way’.
These are people who will make you feel you’re the problem simply for being yourself. You have done nothing to hurt them, nothing to show them anything other than kindness. Their discontent can cause you to be provoked and react accordingly. This can be manipulated and misconstrued to serve their own insecurity.
Keep on being You! Let your light shine bright and don’t let anyone dull your sparkle!
My Realisations
Sadly, I have been the mirror to many discontented people and received many negative reactions. I used to get angry and frustrated when dealing with people who were envious of my circumstances and achievements. However, with hindsight I now realise their envy is an indication of my success and I feel sorry for them. I have learned to not take their feelings on board and feel secure within myself. Consequently, it has taught me to set firm boundaries.
