In the stillness of the soul lies a mirror, Clouded by the fog of fears, doubts, and desires. Each passing thought, each forgotten dream, Leaves its trace, smudging the reflection.

Yet when the mind finds quiet, When the noise recedes like a tide retreating, The mirror clears, and there There is the face you have always sought, The truth of who you are.

Clarity is not a destination, It is the unveiling, the remembering. With each breath, the smudges fade; With each moment of presence, The light shines brighter, undistorted.

The world around you becomes a reflection, A dance of divine clarity, Where choices align with purpose, And life becomes a symphony of knowing.

Hold this mirror steady, beloved, Polish it with the cloth of intention, And let it show you the eternal truth: You are, and always have been, Infinite, whole, and free.

Take a moment before choosing what comes next.

Leaves its trace, smudging the reflection.”
