The more I own more of me, warts and all, the more I become expansive, naked, open. I’m a mirror for the world, I begun to see the answers
so true…the more i explore n understand myself the better m getting to know n understand people….bt i think no one has ever discovered n understand thy self completely…stranger in all of us!!!
I think always is actual”Nosce te ipsum”,a saying ingraved on the Delphi oracle monument.I think is very important knowing ourselfes,and happened to me that a person that I never imagined revealed to me sides of my personalty that was hidden even to myself.I was amazed,but was time to know myself.Than I changed behaviour,and felt different.
Universe is a big example/model of human being, human being is small example/model of universe.
I certainly need to do what today’s quote suggest. I like how it is written. It has stirred something in me.
I have tryed so many yers to find one place to be, one thing to do, but I cant do It. I have longed to be normal and accepted. But It isent until now that I understand that It wasent the sorrounding who dident accept me. It was me not accepting my self that was the problem. I went to Spain this autumn on my own to walk the Camino. By meting others, new people every day I got the chans to se myself from a new prospectiv. I alsaw had the time to reflekt and be on my own. I se myself differently today. But the best thing with It is that I se the world differently aswell. I am a universe of my own trying to find my place among all the other human planets of the world. You don´t need to speek the same language to communicate, understanding is so much more than words. By seeing myself I se others.

Please, “your world” instead of “the world”. “The world” is too big.
“Know thyself” and “As above so below”. The microcosmos and the macrocosmos.
