The Truth Mirror

There is a truth mirror that appears when life beckons us to explore
deeper truths about ourselves.

It appears when the surface truths we have told ourselves, or have been told no longer suffice and we sense the pretence,

This is when our journey of true discovery begins.

It takes courage and a willingness to tune into a different kind of
seeing and hearing.

A willingness to let go of the 'certainties' that went before and allow the nothingness to replace them.

In the nothingness the deeper truths appear and are recognized.

The truth mirror is a gentle guide; it shows what is without blame or
condemnation.

It will wait patiently when we run away from the truth it tells.

It allows us to rant, rave, scream and cry, for it knows that there is
often an inner battle to be fought for truth.

It is a friend who always tells the truth whether we like it or not.

The truth mirror celebrates our laughter of recognition when we start to see through our made up truths, for it knows we are on our way.

The truth mirror never needs to use any kind of force or persuasion
because the deep truths are already within us.

It just shows us what is and waits patiently for our recognition.
