The Mirror…

In the journey of life the mirror has been
My constant companion
Sometimes in the forefront
Sometimes in the doldrums
Sometimes my happiness has peaked
As I looked into it
Other times it has made me
Depressive and disinterested

Though the mirror is inanimate
With no emotions of its own
Yet it wields so much power
No one has ever dwelt on
As I felt mediocre when compared to
Models actresses my beautiful sister and friends
I never wasted my time looking at it
It was just a two minute peek now and again

As I started looking at the internal divine me
My glowing happy face was reflected in the mirror
Without any makeup with tiny laughter lines and wrinkles
I started accepting and loving myself

Today morning when I looked into it
I gave a big smile and said thank you to it
I expressed gratitude for always showing my true self
Never hiding any flaws or imperfections
Acceptance of self has made me accept
All my chubby fat my round shape freckles and all

When I close my eyes in contemplation
Divine light pervades me
That is the true mirror of my beautiful soul
Thank you god for creating me so perfect
So beautiful so loveable
I’m a tribute to your mirror always beautiful always divine
