She was forever lifting people up. It took me a long time to understand that what she did when she lifted you up was to mirror the very best parts of you back to yourself.
On June Carter Cash. Mirroring the very parts of someone back to themselves. It's more than about knowing someone well. Although that helps. Perhaps lt's about assuming everyone has something worthy of lifting up. Treat people with kindness. Giving them the benefit of the doubt. Being wary of someone with potentially dangerous flaws? Has nothing to do with finding something good worth reflecting back.
