Your tone is irreverent
but the laughter in your eyes is frank
words lacking finesse gush forth
but your enthusiasm is infectious
vulgar language is your trademark
I know it hides a beautiful soul
you taught me not to be judgemental
and that perceptions should never cloud the vision
the trajectory that my brain was following was flawed
I am glad you were the mirror I so needed.
Sometimes, we need to see our reflection. Flawed, but still beautiful.

Yes, we don’t need mirrors to preen but to take a hard look at ourselves!

Haha! Could you suggest when it should be timeout? How long can one preen? 😂😂

Great thoughts are the ones that are expressed with the most ordinary words, the ordinary way. Sophistication is usually a sign of doubts, and the weakness of the thought.

It is good to look at ourselves through others eyes, or using them as a mirror. Often we find things we wouldn’t otherwise see. Love this, oh wise one ❤️❤️
