History — Day 23
Go look in a mirror. Describe what you see.
Mirror, Mirror, on the wall...
#23. Go look in a mirror. Describe what you see. Give us the details.
Here is another great challenge from Nancy Blackman, Editor and Publisher of Refresh the Soul.
Go look in a mirror. Describe what you see.
One handsome man, ok that was definitely the wrong mirror. Here is the right mirror.
What I see looking in this mirror is a reflection of everything I have ever seen, the good and bad experiences I have lived through, and pieces of history that have happened during my time here on this earth.
The first major piece of history I remember was the assassination of President John F. Kennedy, and it only got worse from there. Then came the assassinations of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr, and Robert F. Kennedy. I saw this unfold live on TV.
Then there was Vietnam and NASA landing on the Moon, all the way to where we are now. So much more history these eyes have seen.
This face also conceals all the stories told to me in private, which I will never disclose to anyone.
