I have come across amazing bloggers around the world here on WordPress. When I go through some posts, I cannot stop expressing myself how I felt while reading the post. When the blogger responds with a smile and lot of happiness, I often end up saying that I am just a mirror reflecting your Magic.
I was wondering about how much of it true and how much of me is actually reflecting to its best. Is it like a mirror or something else. There has a been time last year, when I was away for 6 months, since I had to take care of other things in life. I was confused, determined and busy. But if I was a mirror, my thoughts should reflect all the same, whichever situation I was in. That was not the case.
I wouldn’t reciprocate well during those times. If I had to post something I was not be able to complete it. I do not like to write about problems or rant about things. There is already too much of noise and I don’t want to add to it. So I took a break to introspect about myself.
I realized that I am not a mirror. I am not stable. I am fluid. I am like water. When I am flowing with purpose, I am not still. When I am with an agenda, I make my way through the hills, rocks, forests and valleys. I cut the soil and the soil cuts me. I do not reflect during these times. But when it is all done, I reach a state of calmness. It is still.
When I am still, I am like a mirror. I am like a water in pond. I am like the clean river flowing down the plains in clean rocks. When you look at me, you will find yourself. If you spread a smile, you get back one. If you are motivated, I resonate. If you are lovely, you get back love.
When I am in a state of complete silence and in a state of stillness, there is more to it than the eyes can meet. It is not just reflection, but reciprocation. When you see you through me, I help you through your thoughts. When you encounter me, I help you channelize your worries and find a reason, a hope to be happy. I show you way through the darkness, into the gleaming light of dawn.
I am a reflection, I reflect your magic.

Bhanu, very good work. Have you ever heard of the king of pop, Michael Jackson? You kind of look like him, before he changed colors, anyways it would be a great honor if you could review a few of my stories at Gastradamus, we talk about all types of issues and we want your opinion on there. This would really be helping me out. Keep on writing, you are very talented.

There is a lot we can learn from the comments sometimes.

Views and Opinions expressed over a topic, give rise to new chain of thoughts. Also since most of the time while responding to a post I put up my thoughts and think about it. That’s how the reflections work. Some of my posts are after thoughts on a discussion in comments or sometimes I comment so big and then I feel it can be converted to a post here on my blog.
I have two pending comments for two blogs, which are going to be big, so I will post on my blog directly.

This was beautifully written. Being able to write and reflect others as well is wonderful but in times when needed it is important that one reflects who they are, in times of difficulties who we are reflects better then ever. I loved your analogy of being water, it goes deep.

I agree on the ‘reflect your thoughts’ but not so much on being a mirror.. For a mirror is an abstract object and the change is only to deteriorate itself.. You are much more than a mirror..
You could absorb, ponder, develop or even crumble a thought.. So I would put it as your other example, water..
The water, which shapes itself to the form of the holding cup and which changes it’s temperature and usage on where it is.. 🙂
