Mistaken Identity

I was traveling along my life line,
 when mine line intersected with a peculiar guy,
 In a time and a place,that was not unfamiliar to me.

He stared at his reflection in a mirror, and chanted, 
“Me,My,I.”

This was a peculiar sight,
 so I couldn’t help but pry, “Are you all right ?”

He replied, “My life line has taken some sever curves and Steep dives !”

I felt compassion for this peculiar Guy’s plight , and had to pry,
“Have you considered inviting God to help you straighten out the sever curves and steep dives in your life ?”

He replied, " Yes,every time I look into a mirror."

“Me,My And I.”
