Really strange experience today. I was working on my bathroom and had made some errors that at the time didn't seem like much. Later I walked into the bathroom and knocked over a box of nails. I had done a similar thing earlier but just picked them up. This time I totally flipped out with angry thoughts toward myself. I was so angry it was ridicules, I allowed myself to experience the feelings and thoughts. The anger was directed at me. I made my way to the other bathroom and looked in the mirror to see who was there. It was my mother. The same scary angry insane face I remember seeing on my mother. As I looked into the mirror I thought in my head that this is a part that acts like my mother when she was angry and mean. I kept looking at her and listening to her and I realized we are not her. This part is still in our system. It makes me think about how I will react the next time I make an error. Or maybe now that I see her she won't attack us because we know it is not how we will allow us to be treated. It was a weird experience once we decided to see who was there. We felt like her but we thought like one of the ones in the world. She allowed us to see her because she could have left, I think. I am not sure. The other may have held her there in body. We were both in the mirror and than there was just us.
