A mirror to the inside

Posted on Jul 11th, 2009 by R George Merrill : George R George Merrill
This is in Response to the Questions and Reflections for July 11, 2009:

Through this window of self reflection I stand looking at the person looking back at me. I know his name... I know his history.... I know his strengths.... I know his weaknesses....I even know his fears.....Yet a stranger is he....There is so much of him still hidden away, camouflaged by life's clutter.

Sounds like you're teetering on the brink of discovery.  Peeling the onion is a difficult job,  sometimes smelly, sometimes makes you cry.  Always worth it though, 'cause I just love onions!  I'm big on getting rid of stuff too.  My life runs a little smoother that way.  When you do connect with the man in the reflection, I think you'll be pleasantly surprised at what a nice man he really is.

It sounds to me like you're about to get efficient.  You're about to simplify things; bring them down to brass tacks.  You're about to clear the clutter–mental or otherwise.

What a beautifully evocative way to describe all those things we let stand in our way; those things that keep us hidden, even from ourselves.  Beautiful.
