My Conversations with a Mirror

Going down memory lane I still remember my first vision of myself when I saw myself in a mirror.The mirror has been my constant companion for decades and not a day passes without my encounter with it. Last night the mirror came to life and told me”You have always seen yourself in me and I had been truthful in conveying the truth about your physical appearance. The interpretation of your image has always been in your court and you were a hypocrite judging your image to your advantage of you being handsome . Little did you realise that I was incapable of reflecting your inner self. You have wasted a major portion of your life only in working on your physique by going to the gym , eating nutritious food and regular workout.You have not realised the futility of your body which will only crumble into dust one day. Have you spent any time on working out on your inner self to strengthen and purify your mind. Growing up is not physical but only mental which will ultimately enable you to reach the peaks of enlightenment.”. I was ashamed and am at crossroads as to which path I have to choose.
