A loving person lives in a loving world．A hostile （敌意的） person lives in a hostile world．Everyone you meet is your mirror．

Mirrors have a very particular    36   ．They reflect the image in front of them．Just as a

   37   mirror works as the vehicle to reflection,    38   do all of the people in our lives．

When we see something beautiful such as a flower garden, that garden    39   a reflection When we love someone, it's a（n）    40   of loving ourselves．We have often heard things like "I love how I am when I'm with that person．" That simply    41   into "I'm able to love me when I love that other person．"    42   , when we meet someone new, we feel as though we "click"．Sometimes it's as if we've    43   each other for a long time．That feeling can come from    44   similarities．

Just as the "mirror" or other person can be a positive reflection, it is more likely that we'll

    45   it when it has a negative connotation（内涵）．    46   ．it's easy to remember times when we have met someone we're not particularly    47   about．We may have some criticism （批评） in our mind about the    48   ．This is especially true when we get to know someone with whom we would rather spend    49   time．

Oftentimes, when we    50   qualities in other people, ironically（讽刺地）, it's usually the mirror that's    51   to us．

At times we meet someone   52   and feel distant, disconnected, or disgusted．   53   we don't want to believe it, and it's not easy or    54   to look further, it can be a great learning lesson to    55   what part of the person is being reflected in you．It's simply just another way to create more self-awareness．
