I was walking by in my office I suddenly caught a view of the mirror, I was pleasantly surprised to see my image in it, if you wonder what was there to get surprised in seeing my own image in mirror when we know that mirror reflects the image of the object that is in front of it, I would like to say that this mirror made me look thinner, yes yes every girls dream to look thinner no matter how skinny she is.
Have you ever been to exhibitions where various mirror are kept in which you would see different shapes and sizes of self, including funny faces. You chose to stand in front of mirror that matches your thought process the most. This world is a similar exhibition and the people you meet in life are various mirrors you come across, every time you meet a new person or even if you meet the same person the next day you would realize how that person reflects your image in terms of your attitude towards that person or towards life. We like some of these reflections and we choose to ignore many of the ones that show us week, little or in some manner don’t suit our thought process. We do have a choice to keep those people in our lives who show just the better side of us, but do you think they are the most important people? Yes they would be amongst the important people when you feel low, but your true mentors are the people who show you your other side. They give you a chance to improve and grow, but only when you choose to have few such people and have the guts to accept there feedback positively.
While a straight mirror might show you an image that you love, but you wouldn’t really learn without viewing self in concave mirror. Bitter truths teach you better then sweet lies subject to our attitude towards these situations.
