Mirror, mirror...on the wall...WHO'S THAT???

Sometimes when looking at myself in a mirror, I get the strangest feeling...like I'm detached from myself and looking on. Okay, no psychoanalysis please...don't want to know what that might mean...it just is a very peculiar feeling. Personal therapy ~ me to me ~ is okay though.

God's looking at me 24/7 and wonder what He thinks, right? It's awesome to think He knows my every thought, emotion...ouch, HE KNOWS ME TOP TO BOTTOM...INSIDE OUT?? I don't even know myself that well. I need a tune-up...oh, and God, please send your Windex!

Just remembered...He's already equipped me w/the tools of choice...many words and the Paraclete, too. Lost my focus somewhere...took my eyes off Him and oops, in the water. I want to be positive; that isn't always simple. Sometimes, I fall into a pool of negativism...my bad. Mm, I love to talk...guess I become smitten w/the sound of my voice...how could people not want to hang on my every word??? My bad. Easy...easy...maybe I'm biased? Probably. Especially if I don't really know much about my subject of the moment...jumping to conclusions is sooooo simple, much simpler than checking facts.

Facts are important, so are many other things...figures...checklists...do I measure up to your expectations? Well, I don't know. You and I don't always bump into each other, so I don't know where you are...you don't know where I am...So?

You and I are good people...but we aren't into the same things...So? You and I may not publicize what we do...So? I'm me & you're you...BUT...good news...I'm out of the shop...clear heart...clear eyes & whew...God's cleaned my mirror!

Thomas Merton wrote..“The beginning of love is to let those we love be perfectly themselves, and not to twist them to fit our own image. Otherwise we love only the reflection of ourselves we find in them.” I aim to love like God does...He knows best & I trust Him...100%. Love You! (Love me?)
