you and your reflection

ben

Go in front of a clear mirror. What do you see? Do you see yourself or someone else?Look at how the person look like? Is he the same person like the one standing in front of him? Has he changed? Has he got aged?Do you see a happy man? Do you see a well-lived man?  Is he the person really in front of the other?  

Your reflection follows you wherever you are at any time. Even in the dark, your reflection is there lighting you up. Your reflection is your second self. If only your reflection could talk, then it would tell you good words to keep you on moving. Also, it could tell everything about who you are.  

However, your reflection is not the real you.

Go back to the mirror again. Look at your second self. It doesn't talk. It doesn't think. It cannot tell you to do something.

It is only you who determine what do to in life in whatever you want to live it. It is not your reflection nor even some other people around you. It is you alone who maneuver your life. Your reflection is just a second you. It can only move whenever you want it to.
