Looking Glass
As I look at the reflection of me
I see the changes that life experience has wrought Images swirl through my mind of past deeds Accomplishments and failures Triumphs and sacrifices Trials and tribulations It seems to me that the majority of the world’s population Is constantly searching, seeking that inner peace That knowledge of self That tranquil meditative pool of consciousness I look back and see The blissful happiness of early childhood The tremulous fear and uncertainty of early adolescence The anger and hate of my teens The searching hurt of my early twenties The growing up and becoming responsible of my mid twenties And now the coming of wisdom and acceptance as I enter my thirties Ten years ago, I had no clue as to who or what even that I was I used to look in the mirror and see… Nothing… Pain, hurt, anger, obsession, fear, lonliness Now as I gaze at my own reflection I see Hope, love, knowledge, inspiration, honesty, loyalty, forgiveness Through the wisdom of age I have learned to forgive I have forgiven those that have hurt me I have forgiven myself for the hurts that I have caused I have opened my heart to love I have opened my heart to friendship I have learned to trust I have learned to have faith I have learned to give I have come to see my true self worth Beauty Strength Compassion Intelligence Inspiration Love The gift of love is the greatest gift of all Love of self Love of family Love of friends Love of humanity Love of a man We all have our tumbles back to the bottom of the hill But some of us, the smart ones, keep climbing. I will keep climbing and I will keep changing and growing And I will achieve greatness I have achieved greatness For I have learned that to achieve greatness You simply must believe in yourself I believe in me I believe in my power to control my thoughts and actions I believe in my ability to persevere I believe in my strength I believe in ME… Looking in the looking glass I see a Woman A simple Woman, with much to give. ~ Hurricane Windy
