There are movies where the main player, up to no good or evil, or has a runaway ego with unchecked power, orders or destroys all mirrors in their world. Look at the symbolism here. The mirror did not do anything, but the person looking into it did. Same thing with running away from your problems, people or circumstances. Where are you going to go to escape yourself?
UNIVERSAL LAW
"Wherever you go, there you are" is non-negotiable. It is impossible to escape your self. Oh sure, you can buy some time-out but never time-away! So, what we have here, when people can't stand still, receive input or feedback & admit, is clearly
SELF-CONVICTING EVIDENCE
Everyone sees it but the person in the mix or conflict. It is not because they are blind. NO. It is a refusal to see themselves, take responsibility & do it (?) no more. Rejecting reality is refusing repentance or change. In other words, I am not sorry
REFUSAL TO REPENT CONVICTS YOU
Repentance or repent means change in the Greek. The process is extremely useful when applied & very damaging when rejected, ignored or put off. The act of denial compounds your existing problem so now you have double-trouble. Not good
WORTHY NOTE: The process of repentance involves stopping what you are doing, being sorry for it, & not doing it again. In 6th grade speak: A person who does NOT repent is simply not sorry, doesn't want to stop & will do it again.
EYE CONTACT SAME THING
People who don't or won't look you in the eye, look in your direction, stare at the floor or close their eyes may be in a state of Unrepentance. They display these mannerisms when interacting with others IF they are in some sort of error or misdeed. This can also indicate shame, shyness or fear. Only the moment & the people in that moment will know
THE CONSCIENCE
What a wonderous & mysterious dynamic this is. Why is it? Where is it? Where did it come from? It definitely is a friend & helper. If one develops & becomes a person of conscience, you will do well all the days of your life. The opposite is true too
MIRROR on the MOVE
You can have a subtle or unplanned "mirror" experience on the go. It works like this: You are engaging someone, & you see in them a clear recognition of yourself but instead of immediately accepting that it is more for you than them, you walk away with what you saw believing it's them until the "aha" or after the fact kicks in. Now, it can apply to both parties, but I would remind you to mind & mine your own business, self-reflection & growth for your own sake. The "mirror" applies to people who we tell off too. In that state, a lot your spewing will be for them & some or all of it will be for you. This process exists in the world of mankind for a reason
PRETENDING NOT TO KNOW
We tend forget our greatest enemy & we don't talk about it, but we do talk about it regarding others called blame. However, the enemy has been sighted & it is us first, & then them, in that order. We see clearly the blind side or fault of others but will slow & pale on seeing our own blindside. If the other has a blind, so do you too
THE STORY WILL TELL OURSELVES
In order not see or deal with ourselves, we tend to concoct a story of what happened, assign the guilt & blame roles with us being the survivor to tell it all. The story attempts to help relieve us of our conscience-speaking to us. Others hear it, get it is you, & at some point, after you tell it over & over, you will sicken from hearing it, wear yourself down & see your true role NOT your story-telling
WHERE THE MIRROR STOPS WITH YOU
Courts of law, family court, criminal court, traffic court, civil court, bankruptcy court, small claims court & all the rest OUTS all storytelling. People who work in these environments have heard it all. For you, it is new. For them, here we go again
IT IS A LEARNING CURVE
Albeit an unpleasant but necessary one, having to confront yourself, morals, character & beliefs usually involves rage, anger & arguing even intimidation, threats & bodily harm too. We all see the dysfunction (s) in all the stages too
ORIGIN OF THE BLIND MISHAPS
Uncorrected slights, misbehaviors & abuse as they start up. If not dealt (stopped) with, they go to aggravated status becoming a familiar occurrence culminating into an explosion of everyday hell, type life leading to it becoming public & exposed for what it is/was. LOOK into your mirror. Be honest. Make changes & Live
