What do you see?

Greetings to all!!! I pray the day is treating you well. So let me ask, have you ever taken a good look in the mirror at YOURSELF? Isn't it amazing how we are quick to pass judgement on the actions of others but fail to see the inadequacies of ourselves? Why do we try to force others to realize their short comings and have a "Come to Jesus" revelation for them, but we do not see it for us? What do you see when you look in the mirror? Are you the best wife or husband you can be? Are you a devoted parent or do you put your needs before the needs of your children the majority of the time? Do you see yourself as a benefit to others or the noose around someones neck? Really, what do you see? Sometimes we are harder on ourselves than anyone else ever could be. What's funny about that is we are harder on ourselves about the things that don't really matter. The reality of it all is that we fail to face the things we should. There is another side to this coin. It is not only our shortcomings that we fail to see, but also the beauty that lies within us. When you look in the mirror do you see the beautiful person you are? Do you realize the potential you have and the unlimited opportunities that are waiting for you? What do you see? Open your eyes and recognize your talents, gifts and greatness. Open your eyes and be real with yourself before you attempt to be "real" with someone else. Recognize and accept it, accept it and change it, change it and love it. Love you all!!!!
