Mirror Image

Mirror Images When I look at myself in the mirror, I see what is not there According to my clothes. Why has my viewpoint changed? I have always seen myself, As being thinner than I really am! That nasty fat girl is supposed to be gone, So why has she suddenly returned? I am not eating as much, Due to the stress of moving. But why has the fat girl returned? I’m confused!!! The fat girl is not what God wants me to see. He would want me to see The much healthier, thin woman I am meant to be. So why is the 450 pound person, Showing up in that mirror on the wall? Is it because we are moving Back to where I used to be Fat and ugly? Only God knows the answer, What am I to learn? Christine Stout
