Reflections
When you look at yourself in a mirror what do you see? Do you focus on your hair?
Do you tell yourself, “Shoot I need more make up?”
Do you love your new glasses?
Or are you one of those people who do not focus on looks?
Are you waking up every morning looking at yourself and telling yourself that that I am going to be better than I was yesterday?
Do you ever take the time to really think about what matters most?
Next time you look in the mirror ask yourself these questions:
Who am I?
What matters?
Twenty years from now when we look back in that mirror
we are going to realize what we were looking for in the first place
is not what makes us the person we are.
The looks will not matter.
What will matter is who you are, how you treat people,
and how you go about living your life.
You decide who is a part of that mirror image.
You don’t like the way you are living?
Change it.
You don’t like how you treat others?
Fix it.
You don’t like the person you see in the mirror every day?
Remember to be yourself.
Because when it comes down to your final days
what is going to matter the most to the people you love you
is how you were on the inside, not the things you saw in your mirror.
