Reflection is powerful.
It is our power to sit back, and look at the mistakes we made in our lives.
Reassess our movements thoughts and actions and provide ourselves a better way to move forward. Most animals have a visceral reaction to things when they make a mistake – fear,anger, etc. and are stuck with that feeling with no explanation of why.
Our power of reflection allows up to know why, and it is also powerful enough to let us know if the reason made sense in the first place.
