Mirror Mirror On the Wall


As you look in the mirror, do you see someone that you are proud of?


Look in your eyes. What do you see? They say that your eyes are a reflection of what’s in your soul. If that's true, then when I look in my eyes I see a hurting, slightly shy girl who is masking her insecurities behind popularity, achievement, and pride.


When we were young, we used to dream about how we would be like when we were older, more mature. We had plans. We would lie there for hours just imagining what it would be like to be 'grown up.' Now that we have reached the grown-up years, are we what we imagined?

Life is full of compromises and challenges. We bend and break ourselves to fit reality. But the honest truth is there is always something about ourselves that we think 'hmm...that could be better.' or 'I wish it wasn't like that.'


So my question is, why don’t we change it? Where is the motivation? We need to get up; change things... start making a difference in our own lives. We all say that we want to make a difference in this world. Actually physically make the world a better place. The truth is, none of that will happen until we get our own lives semi-figured out. Start now. Change something...make it better.


Taking small steps towards the person we dreamed about when we were five, the person that we wish we were now, and the person that we will be proud of being when we're 80. Make that person, a reality. Today. No more waiting. Move.
