The 3 faces Within – The Connector’s Reflection
“Sometimes we stay quiet, not because we have nothing to say but because we don’t want to break the peace.”
That’s the Living Room Mirror.
The face you show friends, family, and close colleagues.
It’s the reflection that wants everyone to be okay
to keep harmony, to avoid conflict, to belong.
The Connector’s Reflection
You meet this mirror every day
at the dinner table, in family chats, in late-night phone calls.
It’s the space where honesty competes with belonging.
– You listen.
– You agree.
– You adjust.
– You smile.
Because peace feels safer than truth.
But every time you swallow your discomfort,
The mirror fogs a little.
You keep seeing others clearly but yourself, less so.
Micro-Tool #3 — Connection Gap Score
(From The Face Alignment Toolkit™)
Rate yourself 1 to 5 for each statement:
- I avoid difficult conversations to keep relationships smooth.
- I often agree, even when I don’t fully mean it.
- I feel emotionally drained after long interactions with people I care about.
Your Score:
- 3 – 6 → The Open Mirror: Honest + kind; balanced connection.
- 7 – 10 → The Fogged Mirror: You care deeply but lose energy managing others’ emotions.
- 11 – 15 → The Smiling Mirror: You please to keep peace; authenticity fades.
Next time you sit with someone close, notice:
“Am I being kind or just avoiding conflict?”
One builds a connection.
The other builds quiet resentment.
Remember:
Empathy without honesty isn’t a connection. It’s performance in disguise.
