We sometimes need to remember what we are currently experiencing in life is what we're currently putting out in the Universe before us. What is life: our perceptions in the current moment currently receiving to our minds as "life", or is it something more?
There are times that I find myself staring at the mirror or a reflective surface simply looking at myself. My gaze sometimes wavers and takes in my surroundings, whether it being the simple background of my bathroom or the outdoor trees and what mother nature has to offer with wildlife.
Have you ever taken the time to stare into a mirror and simply let that moment be? Not for the sake of a task: fussing with your hair, brushing your teeth, or even the times of putting yourself down because you think there is something "wrong" with you (hair is too long, too many blemishes, why are my teeth not as white as they are?, blah, blah, blah....
Have you ever thought that your "faults" you put on yourself is perhaps you deciding that they are "faults"? Yes, we may be swayed by pop culture out there that says we are not good enough without (insert random product that apparently makes you a better person). We are the ones deciding what is important to us or not...what is your definition of being Enough?
Look at yourself in the reflection and think that maybe all of what life is is this moment you're looking in the mirror. Is anything else happening right now in your life rather than this moment you're aware of?
...or is there more to it than that?
Take at least 5 minutes to stare into a reflective surface and really take in your surroundings. What do you see? Feel? Hear? Taste? Touch? Take in all senses and after taking the moment to really Reflect on yourself, write down what your experience was like. There really is no wrong thing to be reflecting on, because what you are is currently important to you in some way.
