Complacency

What is the mirror of being?
Non-being?
... An empty mirror,
and your worst destructive habits,
when they are held up to each other,
that is when the real making begins...
Whoever sees clearly
what is diseased in himself
begins to gallop on the way.
There is nothing worse
than thinking you are well enough.
More than anything,
self-complacency blocks the workmanship.

-- Rumi
