How do we look at other humans? Do we tend to intuitively judge by outer appearance, clothes, gender, race, age, social status or do we recognize and embrace the spirit of God indwelling in them.
Though we all own a mirror in our judgement pocket
we haven't always reflected what we see
sometimes we reflect what we want and need and desire
instead of what truly is. Acknowledging the true essence of the
materialized human before us takes wisdom, insight and clear viewed
OMNIPRESENCE
Sometimes we look with our eyes but we do not truly see
sometimes we look with our hearts but get lost at sea
Don't judge a book by its cover they say but often, we skip the end
Tell the truth at all times, tough the mirror does not lie, we
use evasive techniques to shadow the body. we distort
and then the image goes,
"MISSING"
In this all intrusive re-arranged world of ours
it takes great courage to face the man and woman inside the mirror,
if we cannot truly admit our misconceptions and preconceptions,
then we won't be able to change our perception,
its all about perspective and clear view, isn't it ?

this was beautiful, Mystic Rose. it does take a lot of courage to face the mirror and a lot of responsibility that oftentimes, it is easier to blame and judge others. this was a very soothing yet nudging reminder.
A rhetorical question at the end for the reader to think about, but in a sense you have answer your own question: We do always have a true sense of perspective and rare a completely clear view of what we are seeing. It is all clouded by our own ego traits and misconceptions that overlays the reality of what we are seeing. An insightful poem and thought-provoking.
