A reflection

Beauty is eternity gazing at itself in a mirror.

But you are eternity and you are the mirror. – Kahlil Gibran

 

reflection

Have you ever caught an unexpected glimpse of your reflection… in a window, a mirror in the hall, a puddle on the sidewalk… and seen, for just an instant, yourself through a stranger’s eyes?  Perhaps you were surprised by what was uncovered in that moment… a beauty, an emotion, things unguarded and revealed without rehearsal.

 

Imagine now, turning that same eye within… what do you see?

 

Do you reflect on your life with joy or with regret? Do you see your father or mother, your children, your lovers? Do you see friends you’ve stood by no matter what, or people you’ve betrayed? Do you feel satisfied and hopeful for the future, or frustrated and full of dread? 

 

Does any of it really matter now? The question is…what will you do today? How will you be the mirror of your beautiful soul?
