What is Your Reflection Telling you? Do you see your true self?
There are stories in which the mirror represents the ultimate truth-teller. Look in a mirror, and you may see the true you peering back at you. There is no denying your age, experience, physical issues, eye color, or any physical trait. They are all there, placed in your awareness right in front of you. But there is another aspect of the mirror people avoid. It tells the truth about the decisions you are making and have made in your life. Do these decisions honor you? Do they dishonor you?
The mirror reflects a clear image of this answer. When we look into the mirror, we need to prepare for the cold hard truth. Have you been honest with others and yourself? Have you treated others as you would like to be treated? The mirror doesn’t judge; it merely reflects your truth to you. Whether you want it or not. Be conscious of your mirror today, in thoughts, words, and actions. Do you like your reflection?
Judgment of Others
The mirror is not emotional and doesn’t sugarcoat things for you. Instead, it is an accurate reflection of all you have done and do in life. People spend a lot of time judging other people, their choices in life, and what they are doing financially, in relationships, or in any other aspect of their life. The irony of 
the mirror is that we can’t see flaws in others that don’t exist in us. So before belittling others for their circumstances, take a look in the mirror and see your flaws clearly before harming someone else with your thoughts.
The mirror makes this clearer and brighter as you get more experience in life. Mistakes, misjudgments, wrong turns, bad decisions, and the like are going to happen. Take the lesson, and they are not harmful. Ignore the wisdom they give, and you will repeat them over and over again. Look at your reflection before you criticize the flaws in someone else. There is nothing that will humble you quite like a reflection. It is always essential to focus on your reflection and worry about your actions and let the actions of others represent their value, ethics, and worth as a person. It is none of our business.
What we Might Be
There is another answer in the mirror and its reflection if you look real close. Within the image that you see is the potential of all you can be and accomplish. Unfortunately, too often don’t want to see this reflection because we are 
so far away from achieving that. But there it is, waiting for you to find a way to accomplish it. So how do you do this? One step at a time.
Don’t look at your life as a fixed image. It isn’t. It is continually changing and evolving into something else. Your decisions are made each day, and the actions we take determine what our life is capable of producing as you make choices that honor you, the reflection changes accordingly. The same happens if you make dishonoring choices. There is something to be said for being able to look yourself in the eye with pride. Your decisions determine bright eyes and a clear conscience.
All Things Mirror
All the things that you do will present a mirror image of your life. Your reflection appears in all the relationships you build, the things you 
create, the thoughts you entertain, and how you treat other people. All items are a direct reflection of your philosophy of life and your choices to improve your standing in life.
It is a strange thing to see your reflection in your life. It tells you not what you wish you were or what you wish you had but what you are without hesitation or reservation. The significant part of this is that we are in total control of the reflection we will see. Forget the past and start entertaining thoughts that are honoring right now. Be honest in all you do today. Treat each person in your life as if they are the most critical person in the world. You can do it today, and your true intentions will be reflected flawlessly back to you in your mirror. Do you like what you see?
“I’m a mirror. If you’re cool with me, I’m cool with you, and the exchange starts. What you see is what you reflect. If you don’t like what you see, then you’ve done something. If I’m standoffish, that’s because you are.”- Jay-Z.
“The real man smiles in trouble, gathers strength from distress, and grows brave by reflection.” – Thomas Paine.
