This is a fun and sparkling realization when we encounter lovely, wise people in our daily lives. To think "I am One with this beautiful person!" generates a peaceful sense of satisfaction. It can be more challenging when the person in front of us is exhibiting some less attractive traits, especially when they are the very qualities we would prefer to avoid. Even at those times, though, and perhaps especially at those times, a reflection is being offered, and an opportunity to learn is being provided. If I can see the person in front of me as myself, maybe Spirit can awaken within my heart a sense of compassion for both of us.
Peace be with you.
