Sacred Reminders – Post 4: Encounters as Mirrors — Healing Through Discomfort

Encounters as Mirrors — Healing Through Discomfort

There are moments when I meet someone and my body tenses, my breath shortens, and a quiet unease settles in.

It’s not always loud.

Sometimes it’s just a subtle shift—a flicker of discomfort, a question in my gut.

I used to dismiss it.

Push it away.

Tell myself I was overreacting.

But now I know better.

That discomfort? It’s sacred.

It’s not about them.

It’s about the work—the healing still waiting within me.

Every soul I meet is a mirror.

Especially the ones that stir restlessness in my being.

They show me what I’ve not yet accepted about myself.

They reflect back the pieces of me that are still in resistance, still holding onto fear, still led by ego.

When unease rises, I pause and ask:

Where in me is this echoing? What part of me is still tender, still reacting, still unresolved?

This is not about blame or judgment.

It’s about awareness.

Because the ego loves to fight, to defend, to separate.

But the soul always wants to understand.

When I forget, when the ego comes forth, I remind myself:

God’s light is more powerful than any trigger, any projection, any temporary discomfort.

I don’t always respond with grace.

But I always return to it.

Because that’s what the spiritual path is:

Not being perfect—but being willing.

Willing to pause.

Willing to see.

Willing to grow.

Sacred Reflection:

“Every uneasy interaction is a message from my soul, asking me to look inward.

I choose to listen—not react.”
