Mirrors

Mirrors

They do so much for us and we don't realize it.

They let us know when we look good or our hair (not mine) is messed.

The list goes on and on.

Last night I walked up the stairs to take a shower.
I opened the door and sort of leaned in.

Looking to the left and turning on the light I noticed in the mirror,
sticking out from under a hoodie
a weak tired old man peeking at me surprisingly.

Once I realized he noticed me,,,I gave him my smile. He responded: first with
a small smile which I saw and then the eyes lit up.

My mirror friend gave me, the walk up was tiring....but its no big deal.

We made that walk and we'll continue. Why? thats what we do.

So, he suddenly stood up straight--lifted his shoulders and showed some smiling teeth.

I let him go and then after the shower looked for him.

Suddenly, standing in the mirror,
there was that tall handsome face, smiling with color in his face .

He looked so much healthier.

I thought about all the other mirrors with faces.

Are those faces smiling.

Recently, I suggested to a friend to look into the mirror and spend some time
viewing their face with a smile just for themselves. For no one else.

I thought it was something nice to say.

Now, I know how important that smile is....so

Keep Smilin

especially into those mirrors....
