The Man In The Mirror

All that I could see was a weakling
Frail and surrounded by impossibilities
The child is now a man
But his fears still crowd his mind
The mind has become his world
And his belief his nemesis

Grow up child, the man in him speak
Look in the mirror and see who you are
Within you lie a giant
As strong as a warrior and
Brave as a lion
Look closer child, and tell the man in the mirror who you are

He groan at the man in the mirror
It was a moment to redefine himself
His gaze as blazing as sunlight
I am brave, I am strong, its possible.
I am no longer a child fed with milk
An affirmation that changed his world.

A child needs to grow. Sometimes we need to look at who we are in the mirror and assure the man in the mirror who we want to become. It's a step everyone needs to take at a point in life

Sometimes we really need a mirror just to lift up ourselves from the adversity of life. The inner self can cheer for us and even listen to what we say and what we believe. It's indeed an amazing piece for boosting the confidence, the eagerness for being brave.

The man grows up leaving the child in the mirror. Man must grow to take the life that awaits him full of dreams and achievements.

Thanks for sharing.
Good day.

Sometimes all we need to be is reminded of that we've grown from that small boy into a man. So many young boys have never been taught how to be a man these days as the who he, him, her, she movement has killed raising your kids.

Growing up is part of life. Life consists of different stages and each stage is beautiful and must be appreciate. Living in the moment is important.
