The times we live in now are filled with much questioning and confusion, which offers up the perfect opportunity to take a moment to reflect on who we are, what type of people do we strive to be, and what world do we want to be a part of.
Reflection is never an easy under taking, but often times it forces us to separate the false identity from the true spirit and align one’s self to a deeper reality within.
Moments Of Vision
by Thomas Hardy
That mirror
Which makes of men a transparency,
Who holds that mirror
And bids us such a breast-bare spectacle see
Of you and me?
That mirror
Whose magic penetrates like a dart,
Who lifts that mirror
And throws our mind back on us, and our heart,
until we start?
That mirror
Works well in these night hours of ache;
Why in that mirror
Are tincts we never see ourselves once take
When the world is awake?
That mirror
Can test each mortal when unaware;
Yea, that strange mirror
May catch his last thoughts, whole life foul or fair,
Glassing it — where?
