Tu-Shun

This reading was confusing at first, what I think they are trying to say is basically: We are all one. Whatever happens to one person happens to everyone else. Everyone is a reflection of everyone. That statement makes me want to be a nicer and better person since my reflection is also a reflection on everyone else. I think that your friends and people, even strangers that you come across, all make an impact on you. When you come across a stranger that does something nice for you, whether it’s flash a smile and offer a dollar when your short for coffee, they can make a day better. And my being in a better mood, you’re more likely to do something nice for someone else as well. Or if they’re rude or shove by without apologizing, they can turn a day sour, or at least for me it can. But I tend to be sensitive towards other people’s emotions and feed off of other people’s energy.
I don’t think that everyone is an exact reflection on everyone. There’s definitely more a connection to the people that are closer to you. Who you’re friends are and the choices they make in their lives can make a huge difference in your world. You’re more of a reflection to them then a reflection to someone you don’t know on the opposite side of the world living a completely different life style.
