The Mirror
There is something in this universe that shows us things exactly for what they are. 
Some things we desperately want to change and some people are content with it all.
The mirror never lies and sometimes it is the enemy you never knew you had….
The mirror.

You take your hand and slowly lift it up to the dirty disheveled mirror in your bedroom.
Your fingertips glaze the surface and leave a clean reminisce in the dust.
Tears roll down your cheek as it is almost too disheartening to see the reflection. 
You are tired. 
You are unkept from depression.
Things that should be every day routine, are now more like chores.

Why?
Why cant you change what you see? 
It is one constant that will never change.
The mirror never lies. 
How? How can the one thing that is truthful in your life bring you so much sadness?
The mirror.

You turn from your reflection and fall the floor. 
You are on your knees, head in your hands.
You cry out to whoever will listen. 
You pause. 
Silence. 
You pick your head up. 
You turn back and walk toward the mirror. 
You push back the tears that well up in your eyes. 

You calm your mind and think to yourself momentarily.
There is also another constant, and its one you always shined a negative light on.
Why do you hate what you see? 
The words of others possibly?
Or was it just you seeing yourself in the worst way possible?
Not knowing how to make amends with the person staring back at you.
You look away and place your left hand on your right shoulder. 
“Seems as though you love yourself more than you think you do. 
So next time you look in the mirror and don’t like what you see,
Don’t be so hard on yourself.
Because at the end of the day, the only person you truly can rely on,
Is ME.”

So today you can make a vow to uphold. 
Don’t hate the reflection because it isn’t perfect.
You are a work in progress. 
Growing mentally stronger with each hardship you overcome and sometimes don’t overcome. 
Don’t be afraid to put yourself first. 
Being selfish is scary but being too selfless is deadly. 
The mirror never lies.
