Shooting Mirrors



   Why is it that we take jabs at the people that we deem "different" from the norm. When we, ourselves, lose our own individuality, over conforming into an unrealistic ideal? Everyone person is different from the other. There is no right or wrong only different shades of gray. We are who we are meant to be. One way or another everyone will see you for exactly who you are....yourself.


It started with a negative thought. 


   A poisonous black seed that embedded itself into the soils of our troubled fertile mind. Something so little that in several years time its roots burrowed into the lobes of our brain twisted around our nerves, controlling our every move. It  grew and grew. Our once minuscule issue turned into a colossus oak tree in what seemed over night. A problem that handicapped us from achieving the lifestyle we dreamed of having. Worse than gluttony or lust. Greed or envy. A sin so terrible that it would've been band from all mankind....self loathing. 


Shoot the mirror. It's already broken. Why not take the broken pieces and start fresh?Construct our own mirror. Build it up to be everything we had wanted it to be.
