A Series on It’s All in The Reflection
It’s in Your Reflection, Isn’t it
You’ve boarded the train. Watched the river shimmer. Sipped wine. And let your soul rest. What’s rising to the surface?
The Looking Glass
Imagine the reflections in the Sacramento River. Or in the windows on the train. Let the ripples mirror your thoughts.
Let the questions come – not ones that need answers right away. The kind that echoes. Like footsteps along the waterfront.
What might they be?
Did you allow yourself to be still long enough to hear what your soul was saying? What did the rhythm of the train stir in you — longing, memory, or hope?
Maybe it stirred something once buried.
A gentle reminder that movement doesn’t always mean progress. But sometimes return.
Returning to something that needs to be processed. Or healed. Stillness can be a doorway. Not a delay.
Did the river reflect something you hadn’t named yet?
Still waters don’t always mean peace.
Sometimes they mean depth.
Sometimes they mean waiting.
Which moment felt like a mirror — showing you something you hadn’t seen before?
The realization of considering other perspectives.
Or it could be the instant a stranger nodded and smiled.
Maybe it was the train echoing a sound you forgot about that triggered something you needed to remember.
Did the rooftop pool invite you to float or to let go?
Letting go doesn’t always mean surrender — sometimes it means trust.
To trust in yourself.
To trust others.
Remember, rest can be a form of courage. Floating permits you to lift the weight of expectations. If for only a moment.
Ready to Reflect
Your journey isn’t over. It’s unfolding. Like a bridge over a river. Like a train rounding the bend.
You feel the vibrations.
The sway.
The strength.
We all need strong tracks, especially in relationships. Tracks built on respect and trust.
Tracks that offer grace.
Tracks that guide us in the right direction, even when we get derailed.
Because what matters isn’t just where you’re going, it’s how you arrive. With awareness. With a new perspective.
