“The mirror reflects perfectly; it makes no mistakes because it doesn't think. To think is to make mistakes.”
“We develop a sense of self by coming to see ourselves in the reflections of how others see us - what they reflect back about us, how they view us, what kind of person they think we are and so on.”
“(L)ong term fundamental change can only come when we search our selves, our souls, our spirits, for an inner peace that can then reflect outwards in our actions.”
“I have come to understand that before choices, come our desires. Our desires influence our choices… Because many of our thoughts are private, protected, and hidden from view, our actions for a time may not always reflect our inner desires. However, eventually, our inner desires are given life and they are seen in our choices and in our actions.”
“We don't set out to save the world; we set out to wonder how other people are doing and to reflect on how our actions affect other people's hearts.”
