Is That Reflection Really You?

Some people look in the mirror everyday, and others avoid it. Some people see their reflection and are happy with it and others will stop at nothing to alter theirs. Most people probably look in the mirror and don't see themselves as others may see them. Our reflection is a mysterious thing. When we look in the mirror do we really see what we think we see? At that very moment when you see your reflection is it telling the truth?

A lady walks outside and receives non-stop compliments of how beautiful she looks; she also got that beautiful dress delivered to her that afternoon that she ordered online; and she found out her poem was selected to be featured in her local newspaper. That afternoon as she walks past a store window and  gazes at her reflection she thinks to herself, " I look good today, and I like what I see!"

The same lady walks outside on a different day and she doesn't receive one compliment. She lost track of time and had to rush out for work leaving her cell phone behind; and to top it all off she received bad news through a phone call before she left home. As she walks past the mirror in the dressing room of the department store where she works, she thinks to herself, " I look awful, I wish I was pretty. I don't like what I see." 

What happen? The same lady saw her reflection on two different days but saw two different reflections. Could it be that what she saw was actually what she felt inside? Was she really looking at her reflection with her eyes or was she looking with her heart?

If when you look at your reflection and don't see one of the most beautiful faces you've ever seen, then you may need to check to see if you are loving yourself at that moment. Check to see if you feel good about yourself at that moment; and if not, find anything to be happy about.

See, believe it or not, when you look at your reflection it's more than the outer appearance you see. You CAN see the inner most part of your spirit when you look at your reflection. Instead of constantly altering your outer appearance and trying so hard to change the physical you, work more on changing the spiritual you. I guarantee your reflection will always tell the truth if you are loving yourself and happy with YOU. You are the most beautiful creation in the world.
