Mirror

FOR ME SOMETIMES, IT'S HARD TO LIVE IN REALITY...
IT'S EASIER TO MAKE UP MY REALITY... LIVE IN MY PAST, DREAM ABOUT FUTURE CONQUESTS OR THINGS I COULDN'T HAVE.
IN ADDITION, IT'S ULTRA REFRESHING TO LOOK IN THE "MIRROR", AND SOMETHING DEVASTATING AND BEAUTIFUL IS STARING BACK.
PAST FALLS HAVE OPENED OPPORTUNITIES...
WHATEVER BROKE MY HEART, HAS MADE ME STRONGER, AND PREVENTED WORSE FROM STABBING AT ME.
I LEARNED THAT WHATEVER JOY OR IRRITATION THIS MOMENT POSSESSES WILL PASS...
AND THAT'S THE WAY IT'S SUPPOSED TO BE...

"A mirror will reflect all things perfectly, whether they are beautiful or ugly; it never refuses to show a thing, nor does it retain the thing after it is gone. The mind should be as open as this."
Lin Ching-hsi

Don't look in there too long! Is there something "ugly" you're retaining today that you can let go?
