Hi Kelvin,

Actually I've stepped on plenty of mines in my time!

What I felt urged to do initially, was simply to express, without too much reservation, and then to watch the affect in the mirror. It wasn't that I was intentionally trying to push buttons. It's just that it seemed the best way to get some kind of reflection and feedback - you simply can't progress at all if one is not prepared to put oneself out to a degree.

I came to realise that if you do challenge yourself, the universe will always meet you half way.

In the various exchanges, I'd be watching both the external mirror and myself accutely. I'd notice where my actions activated distortions in others (hence the point), but I'd also reflect on how in the future I might do it more diplomatically and with greater sophistication.

The key point is though, unless we're prepared to step in and act, we're not going to get much of a mirror from which to work.

Very best wishes

Open
