Read the passage carefully Then answer the questions or complete the statements in the fewest possible words A loving person lives in a loving world A hostile person lives in a hostile world Everyone you meet is your mirror Mirrors have a very particular function They reflect the image in front of them Just as a physical mirror serves as the vehicle to reflection so do all of the people in our lives When we see something beautiful such as a flower garden that garden serves as a reflection In order to see the beauty in front of us we must be able to see the beauty inside of ourselves When we love someone it s a reflection of loving ourselves We have often heard things like I love how I am when I m with that person That simply translates into I m able to love me when I love that other person Oftentimes when we meet someone new we feel as though we click Sometimes it s as if we ve known each other for a long time That feeling can come from sharing similarities Just as the mirror or other person can be a positive reflection it is more likely that we ll notice it when it has a negative connotation For example it s easy to remember times when we have met someone we re not particularly crazy about We may have some criticism in our mind about the person This is especially true when we get to know someone with whom we would rather spend less time Frequently when we dislike qualities in other people ironically it s usually the mirror that s speaking to us I began questioning myself further each time I encountered someone that I didn t particularly like Each time I asked myself What is it about that person that I don t like and then Is there something similar in me in every instance I could see a piece of that quality in me and sometimes I had to really get very introspective So what did that mean It means that just as I can get annoyed or disturbed when I notice that aspect in someone else I d better reexamine my qualities and consider making some changes Even if I m not willing to make a drastic change at least I consider how I might modify some of the things that I m doing At times we meet someone new and feel distant disconnected or disgusted Although we don t want to believe it and it s not easy or desirable to look further it can be a great learning lesson to figure out what part of the person is being reflected in you It s simply just another way to create more self awareness Note Answer the questions or complete the statements in NO MORE THAN 12 WORDS 小题小题 1 Everyone we meet is our mirror because 小题小题 2 is the
