"The world is a mirror.. " . I have always wondered what this actually means but never really figured it out until now. I guess I was looking for something really significant when the explanation is quite simple, or so I believe :)
What we like in this world is what we are. Its as simple as that. This is, like anything else, easily understood with a simple example. Personally, I like soft spoken people. I am very comfortable when I'm with them. Now, if the world is a mirror this should mean Im soft spoken too, which, of course, is true!
The same logic can be applied to what we hate. We are the complete opposite of whatever we detest in this world. If you hate violence, it means you love peace. If you hate crowds, you love isolation. This seems pretty obvious and yes, it is obvious. :)
This may contradict the popular belief that opposites attract. For me personally, there is no conflict because I was never comfortable with that theory in the first place :) You may be fascinated by someone who is different from you but, this is not a genuine liking. The fact is, you will like people who are similar to you. They are the ones you will be most comfortable with.
The world is a mirror.. :)
