People of our planet earth,

I heard many times when things go wrong or not the way expected, “life is not fair” line from folks. Initially, I thought they were accurately describing the outcome/situation. Somehow that thought did not settle in my mind. So here it surfaced back in an article form.

Let’s experience this together in few minutes.

Step#1:

I am sure you have a mirror at your place, and you look at that at least once a day. Next time when you see it, take a minute and ask yourself. “What is changed?” It depends on where you are in your life timeline. You may have many different answers. (e.g., lost/gained weight, hair looks different, why I am wearing the same clothes, tired, energetic, etc.,)

Obviously, something changed on you, and the mirror reflects it, and your brain is interpreting the change to you. Depends on what is going on in your brain process, it may add sweet or bitter or some flavor of that change, and finally, an answer thought comes out. You take that answer to heart and either be happy or sad or mad or indifferent. Now you might agree or think that the “mirror” has nothing to do with the change, it just reflected the difference, and your brain processed it. The entire world around us is the “mirror,” and we may not think that way because it is not easy to understand or believe. But that’s the truth.

Step#2:

Stop reading and close your eyes and think about this “world is a mirror” for some time.

Now open your eyes and look around the objects. The same objects have given different meanings to you from time to time. The same thing goes to folks around you. The same thing goes for the situations and outcomes of something.

So next time when you hear or say, “Life is not fair,” think about the “Mirror” for a minute and see the truth behind that reflection.

Step#3:

Read this article in three different settings, for example, a weekday, weekend, or vacation. If you get the same answer, you can see what the world/mirror is and where the change happened. If not, try again; someday, you will have to realize the difference.

Final word.

All the best looking at the “World/Mirror” as it is. It is the state of higher intelligence. Everything else is just a distraction.
