Imperfect Mirror of Mind

Imperfect Mirror of Mind

13 Jan 2014

Isn't it time to make peace with our image? The Buddha said, “The mind is everything. What you think you become.”  What we see and say about ourselves may not bear any resemblance to how others see us.  Yet distortions caused by the looking glass of our mind influences our behavior. The mental image of ourselves can cause much anxiety and even feed eating disorders.  Maybe Cupid was reminding Venus At Her Mirror  to see that  perfection lives only in the dictionary, and that it would be healthier to reflect upon accepting ourselves as perfectly imperfect.
