T

T is for Treasure. Treasure is often obscured, hidden buried deep down in an out of the way place. There is a superstition that breaking a mirror brings seven years of bad luck. When a mirror is broken you metaphorically cannot see your own beauty or have a map to guide you to treasures hidden inside yourself. When I am depressed I feel my mirror to the world is broken and I don’t exist. Depression is an act of denying beauty, closing oneself off, not allowing light to be seen. True Beauty is not reflected light, it is light that is magnified by being open and accepting. Be the mirror that magnifies light, disregard illusory reflected light. Just look at the world in this moment and reality will shine through you and guide you.
