Open Thread: Mirror

Hosted by an empty mirror

Let go of your worries

Let go of your worries 

and be completely clear-hearted, 

like the face of a mirror 

that contains no images. 

If you want a clear mirror, 

behold yourself 

and see the shameless truth, 

which the mirror reflects. 

If metal can be polished 

to a mirror-like finish, 

what polishing might the mirror 

of the heart require? 

Between the mirror and the heart 

is this single difference: 

the heart conceals secrets, 

while the mirror does not. 

- Mewlana Jalaluddin Rumi

Friday Recommendations!  What have you been reading/writing/listening to/playing/watching lately?  Shamelessly self-promote or boost the signal on something you think we should know about - the weekend’s coming up, give us something new to explore! 

   

And, like on all threads: please remember to use the "post new comment" feature rather than the "reply" feature, even when directly replying to someone else!
