That is how it is with mirrors. As a kid, I didn't have much use for them other than to try to gain control over my unruly curls or glare at my freckles! As I aged, I switched from my hair and freckles (we made a truce) to wrinkles and other imperfections.
Until now. Now, each time I pass a mirror, I am reminded of what daddy always said when saying goodbye. He said it to all of us, all the time, without fail. The words might be different, depending on if you were on the phone with him or leaving to travel home, but basically it was the same.....
"Go look in the mirror and tell yourself that your daddy loves you."
Sweet and simple but totally genuine.
