Sheeshe

I think it started, or atleast came back to my mind by the line in Echoes
"I am you and what I see is me"
I have been tripped many times by this thought since I came across it,that, anything we measure/judge/conclude is purely in comparison or to be more precise in reflection to ourselves.. i.e. my thoughts, my feelings, my knowledge about myself is the only criteria I have to observe the external thing.. there is no way, atleast at this stage by which I can take out the self element from my perception..
that means all the beauty I see is me, all the ugly I see is me, all the thing I get annoyed by is me, all the things please me is me..
and this thought never leaves the hold of me..
recently the song which is in my mind also says

maine yeh bhi socha hai aksaar
tu bhi, main bhi ,sabhi hai sheeshe
khudi ko hum sabhi mein dekhe
nahi hoon main, hoon main to phir bhi
sahi galat tumhara main
mujhe pana , pana hai khudko

and so on.....

  1. It's true. You can also use this when you "miss" certain people that are no longer in your life: (ex friends, ex boyfriends/girlfriends, strangers, etc.) When you feel like you miss them, look to what you are actually missing or craving. & then refind that within yourself. ..if that makes sense?

    1. Exactly, makes perfect sense.. the kind of feelings those people were able to arouse are again in you.. you actually miss YOU of that time(!?)..
