Reflect not because you are wrong, but because you should not have been.
|
Life is full of setbacks, so it's necessary to reflect, confront the pain, and not to think that hiding one's ears can silence the bell. It's also impossible to reach the black through a narrow alleyway.
Reflection is like taking one's pulse—regardless of circumstances or mood, whether past glories have been achieved or not, one must look into the mirror of the past.
Reflection causes pain, but also clarity. You reflect not because you've made a mistake, but because you shouldn't have.
Reflection is not a reflexive response, but a thoughtful contemplation of the mind. Simply noticing that an apple fell from a tree doesn't mean a deeper consideration of why it fell.
Reflection often involves the pain of failure, the pain of summarizing a trend, and the tearing pain of an era.
Reflection can make you grow, like a young tree, each reflection adds a ring of growth, from the initial weakness to the final towering stature – it's a process of reflection.
