All that we attract is but an divinely designed REFLECTION and opportunity offering us the option to refine our ability to love ourselves with greater compassion. All is an option to give ourselves more of that which we perceive we need from others. The qualities in others that trigger our patience and propel us into a state of judgment are but magnified external reflections of the parts of ourselves that need the most love, nurturing and attention.When we begin to see every single person, circumstance or challenge as a gift from the universe reminding us of the parts of ourselves we must embrace with greater love and acceptance, we step into the role of conscious creator and experiencer of our reality.When we cease feeling disappointed by others and instead celebrate their presence as a gift reminding us to cease feeling disappointed with ourselves, we LIGHTEN UP, in all ways. We are stop blaming others and begin owning these beautiful, divine reflections outside ourselves as simply an opportunity to love ourselves more, and we are liberated from the inside-out. When we cease trying to change or resolve the external reality that is simply reflecting back to us what we most need to embrace internally, we begin to see ourselves and life in its purest state. When we reach a point where we can begin to celebrate the reflection of ourselves in others as an opportunity instead of a punishment, we are FREE. In this space, we awaken. We remember. We allow ourselves to shine more brightly - precisely as we are intended to shine)
