A Visit With Oneself
We meet a lot of people walking the different paths of life, some stick around to the end, some tag along for the ride, and some just get packed away in the stacks of memories. We get some of our best laughs from them as well as the tartest of moments. For the first time today I felt strange. Strangely connected. The strangeness that comes about when your friend sits across from you and tells you who you are. There is a comforting discomfort in that. Partly because you feel like you're no more standing shoulder to shoulder but now with a mirror in between where you are as much behind as you are in front, hiding nothing. But then you also hear them describing you.. you want to listen.. the words that tell you what you are all about and oddly enough you realize that you can be described in words. Maybe this is why they say your friends are a reflection of you.. and if nothing else, leaving us with the security that even in the toughest of times, these mirrors won't crack! :)
