Mirrors.

   You can be having the best day in the world and then it can all come to a screeching halt. I think everyone can experience that once and a while, which comforts me, because it happened to me on Tuesday. A beautiful day, and of course I was exhausted. I had a project due and a test to take, so I was up until around 2:00 the night before.  I could hardy keep my eyes open. She told me to go to his office while I was in choir, minding my own businesses singing.
   While walking down the hall way I knew something bad was happening. It was just a feeling I had in the bottom of my stomach, kind of like the feeling you get when you know you hate your outfit but your late and have to leave the house feeling uncomfortable. However, my feeling was 10 times worse. I walked into his office with a smile on my face, a fake smile, trying to hide my exhaustion. Two  of my advisers from a club I am apart of were sitting in the plush chairs.
   The next thing I knew my heart was out of my body, crushed, and thrown in the garbage can. I couldn't breath, and of course I was balling. Someone had complained about me. Someone told them I was a judgmental bitch who made fun of people's clothing. If you have met me, or read my blog, you would know I'm not like that. I'm against that! I want people to be themselves! Its what my future career is based on!
   After an hour of tears, I thought to my self, why do I care? I know who I am, I know I am not judgmental at all.  Its like a serios of mirrors. A mirror at a shopping center looks completely different from a mirror at home. They make your face look wider, your hips look bigger, and your skin look grey. But you normally buy whatever it is you tried on, because you know your body, you know it will look better outside of the store. Those kinds of mirrors are how other people reflect you. Your mirror is how you reflect yourself. So why do we care about the other mirrors? We shouldn't. Be yourself, know yourself, and use your own  mirror. ☀
