Reciprocate love

You are the mirror in which all your loved ones see themselves. You can soothe and inspire them by reflecting back an image that is lovable and competent. Calvin Cooley, renowned sociologist has described the Mirror Image thus: ‘I am what I think you think I am.’ If you constantly put down others, you can destroy them mentally. Their unhappiness can harm your mindscape. Accept your family as they are. Unrealistic expectations about your child can put unrelenting pressure on him/her. Mills and Boon expectations of your spouse can make them feel unloved and inadequate. They can then become cranky and difficult. Compete only with yourself. Take pleasure in others’ growth and achievement. Keep the child in you alive. Cuddle, nurture and liberate the child in you.
