Mirror

Sometimes I sit back and look at my life as through a mirror. I see all of my choices reflecting back to me and how they changed my life be them good and bad. Our life is a reflection of all of our past decisions. Sometimes we have to take the time and look out of the course of our lives and wonder how or why we did some of the things that we did? I have recently looked in to my life and realized that damn, what the hell was I thinking do that?? I can look in the mirror and see how I have changed and grown through my own personal life's decisions.

Have you ever looked at someone and said, "Damn, they have had a rough life"??? I know that I have and it is funny because we don't know what they see when they look in their mirror, but we know what reflection their mirror is showing us. All of us are just a reflection that our own mirror wants everyone to see us as.... Funny you can look at the Fairy Tale Snow White and see that the mirror, mirror on the wall saw Snow White as the fairest of all, but the evil queen wanted to be the one. Her mirror new that she was grimy and let her know that there was someone out there that looked better.

Don't get it bent though. Looks are far from everything, they are what people see at first and if you are really shallow then that is all you want, a trophy to say the least. If you want a companion, a lover and an understander...(I know I made it up LOL, it sounds good though) then you need to look into their mirror and see what's really good. Like people say and I know for a fact, trial and error, you can have the finest person but once you get to know them they turn ugly. Maybe you don't have the prettiest looking person, but once you get to know them their reflection changes and you find that you have someone very attractive.

What do you see when you look at me? But most important do you like what you see when you look at your personal reflection in your own......

J,

Yo, this has to be your best so far. Seriously. Damn ma. As for what I see when I look at you? I see beauty both inward and outward. Inward I see compassion. I know that you would do almost anything for your friends and family to help. Outward...those eyes and those lips! Boi! LOL! I could on and on about what I see but I'm trying to leave a comment, not write a blog. Plus, you already know. As for what I see in me. I see a work in the progress and I thank you for your part in helping me to get to where I need to be. I look forward in seeing your next blog.

I have been looking in my mirror for some time now and for a long time I did not like what I saw but after my experiences in Korea; being torn down and built back up, I now like what I see. Like D, I am a work in progress but damn, I am about to turn 40...LOL...Boogie continue to give your words of Love and encouragement because you are reaching a lot of people and one is me...
