One day she looked in the mirror. She didn’t like what she saw. So she looked at herself, and told herself change needed to happen. Sometimes when you don’t like who you see or Or what you see, change just needs to happen. She was growing angry and her self-esteem but slow.
She didn’t even know who she was at that moment standing in the mirror. All she knows is that she wanted to see something different and feel different. Everyone around her and made her feel like she was a nobody. The distance their self they turned against her and she was in a fight for her life. She didn’t know what to do as far is becoming happy. But she knew what steps did she must begin within the first step was looking in the mirror. All the pain and all the hurt that she had been through all of the sad nights.
Tossing and turning in her sleep, trying to figure out why. Why is she had ever felt so lost in alone. While she was standing in the mirror trying to figure out why she didn’t even like the person that she was. She wanted to be someone that people can look up to she wanted to be more. So she didn’t want to live life on the edge. So at the age of 19 she became a mother one of the wildest thing she had ever done. From then she just lived her life around her children.
A life full of laughter and fun and games. Struggle in even more pain. She used to think that life was so simple but now she thinks life is just so hard. Most days she feels defeated and she just wants you all to end. So she wakes up every day and she thinks of a way that she could make it all better. She still looks in the mirror and she still tells her self something must change. She has four children they look up to her they look to her for help. For children that she must see to the end. She knows that she must go hard every single day so that they can live a life where they are not in pain. Where they are not struggling and crying every night. She wants to take away that pain. She wants Them to have everything the world if it’s possible. Although she feels like a failure sometime she knows that she must keep going. She’s in a fight for her life. She does not want to feel these children. So that she can look them in the face when they’re older and see all that she has been through and know that she made it through. All it’s up with her looking in the mirror. Just to see that everything about her was perfect. Perfectly imperfect, that’s what she will call her journey because at the end of the day she would always look in the mirror and feel like she was never good enough. She would look in the mirror and say I am not beautiful I am not happy I am not OK. But each and every day she kept going and she kept going. She wanted so much more and she had To push her self. Because she had no one to be there for her and support her to give her or to do for her. But she just knew she just knew that the person that she was looking at in the mirror can be strong. She knew that the person that she was looking in the mirror could get through everything that she has been through. She knows that if she can make it that far that she just keep going. She wouldn’t stop for nothing in the world because her children needed her to survive. They needed her to make a pair of the cut down those trees to knock down those obstacles so that they could go through Freely. Yes there will be troubles in the world. But it is one of their least words would be the struggle. Because no matter what no matter where or how far she is from her children every day will be dedicated to making sure you’re alive on this earth has purpose. This woman, looked in a mirror, and found herself. The person she had been searching for a long.I was standing right there in the mirror looking at myself. I’m happy with myself now loving myself. And then when each day is over I just think God that he gave me a chance to do it all over again. And when I wake up I think God that I’m even here. Thank you guys for mirrors in Life and in bathrooms.
