"It's just a Mirror"

There is illusions all around us. Take your choice, look at anything and what you will see is a reflection, you will notice something, and your noticing of it will be personal to you. Many others will look at this same thing and see something very different. That is because all things are filtered through our own personal perspective.   Are you often noticing something in someone and wish that personality trait would be left behind, there is something to be said for it. Your ability to see what is there is only because it is also within you. It may be something you wish not to be, or something you use to be, but it is still part of you. This awareness allows you to shine light on it, see it for what it is and shift higher into yourself. I will use a personal experience to explain this more. I have come to notice in many friends and family an insecurity about themselves, a feeling of lack and a discomfort in their personal idea's and how they will be received by others. When I shun these people or perceptions away a whole lot more people show up with similar traits. That is when I took notice and became appreciative for this awareness. For I know it is all a reflection but not always the easiest thing to look at.

Now is the time to move forward from this and brake free of an old habit or way of being. So I take a journey through my own life, looking upon my actions to see where my insecurities lie. How am I unconsciously being insecure in my own right. There are moments of awareness I see clearly that I to am holding on to old patterns of self doubt. Once I have become aware of these patterns the next step has grown. I can now take time to be conscious of these self doubting behaviors, as I shine my awareness on this situation each time they show up I am breaking the old cycle. I take a deep breathe and ask for clarity and guidance. I clear my mind and focus on my breathe. I allow myself to open to receiving new idea's, new thought patterns and as I come back to my situation I feel a releasing of all doubt. 

Take some time to write a list of those traits you often see in others, allow both the good and bad to shine through. Pick a trait you would like to release and become conscious of times when you to show this trait. When those new situations show up and your old trait follows along, notice it. Take a deep breathe and send loving energy to it. Ask for clarity on releasing this behavior or pattern. It is only through are self awareness and Love that we may break free of the old, limiting thoughts so we may make room to become more of who we authentically are.
