An 'aha' moment

I’ve had a thought… an ‘aha’ moment…(now that’s a good name for a blog ~ Ania’s ‘aha’ moment blog~). We often say an art viewer might look at a piece of art work and see a part of themselves in the work. They will interpret the artist’s work in light of their own experiences. They shall see reflections of their experiences in the artist’s work. The artist might not had ever intended to convey the message or symbol read by the viewer but their experience interprets what they see in an art work.
Similarily, can we not say that when we meet another person or come to know another person that our subconscience decides if we like this person or not based on reflections of our own personal (and I would say emotional) experiences. If we like a person is it because we see our own love, happiness and joy reflected in the other person? If we take a dislike to another is it because we see our own failings in the other person? Does it not follow then that if others are unkind to us they are merely seeing reflections of themselves? And for the people who are always kind they see only kindness in the other? So if you are experiencing or suffering from others' negative behaviours perhaps look at your surroundings. Change them if you can and work with others who have a positive outlook on life and they shall see only positvie things about you and accept you for whom you are .
