My world’s a mirror

My world’s a mirror
Written by Paula O’Sullivan

My world’s a mirror,
and I can see,
all I am,
reflecting back at me.

I will reap,
what I sow,
so in my worldly garden
what will I grow?

If I plant the
seeds of hate,
I’ll have sorrow,
at my gate.

If I plant
the seeds of love,
I’ll always have blue skies
up above,
for no black clouds will follow me,
if I give my all to thee.

My world’s a mirror,
and I can see,
me in you,
and you in me.

So I reach out to
you my dear,
the reflection in my mirror
is clear,
no more shadows,
no more fears,
no more sadness, no more tears.

I know that
if I shine my light
in my mirror
I’ll see,
that it’ll reflect
right back at me!

So if you standest
in the darkness
cursed,
don’t complain
shine your light
First!

About this poem:
There is a little understood concept of 'As within so without', which suggests that our outer reality is but a mere reflection of what kind of thoughts, beliefs, emotions, conditioning and feelings we are harboring within us. We are usually experiencing chaos to peace and all the stages in-between. We keep hoping that our external conditions or people will change, but the miracles can really happen when we change within first. If you want peace, be peaceful, if you want love, be loving etc.
