Funny thing about a mirror—you can look at it, stare at it, unbelieving of what you see, but your mind decides what you see. Of course the mirror has no personality, it simply reflects you, whether you like it or not. We cannot usually look at ourselves and see our real self—we will always be prejudiced one way or another. Men will see a virile strong muscular body or the last night’s beer paunch. A woman will see a model of confidence or every wrinkle. The mirror cannot help you decide how you see yourself.

I do so agree! A mirror will never tell the truth, you must decide on that for yourself!

Yes. I suppose the truth depends on what we want to see.

I always remind myself that I’m not seeing the real me because the image is the wrong way round! Doesn’t help though.
