A Quote by Deepak Chopra

We are attracted to people who have traits we want in ourselves, and usually we are unattracted to people with traits that we share. — © Deepak Chopra
We are attracted to people who have traits we want in ourselves, and usually we are unattracted to people with traits that we share.
When we find delight in another person, we've actually found something joyful inside ourselves that involves a shift in our awareness, a shift in our perception, because the same person is not necessarily attractive to other people.In relationship, whenever we're drawn to someone or repelled by someone, they're both mirrors of the self. We're attracted to people in whom we find traits that we want or desire in our own selves. And we are repelled by people in whom we find traits that we're denying in ourselves. So relationship is a true mirror of where we are in our evolution in consciousness.
