Mirrored Images Artricia D Reed

Looking back into our memories we see a mirrored image of ourselves in every situation and how our behavior affects the situation. These reflections are outlines that we created in our minds to understand the lesson in the situation. What is seen in the mirror of memory can be taken in many different contexts, if our view is one of negativity then the memory is one of sadness and depression. The other side of the coin logically has to be that if the view is positive then the memory is of joy and happiness. Growing older and wiser we come to understand that we live through our emotions which are anything but logical. We have to reflect on the past using the view to steer the present into the future we wish to have, if we can see the negative memories with a positive eye, we can learn so much towards doing just that. In this book of poetry I to expose negative reflections from the other side of the mirror without the unsettling emotions you can get a sense of direction from my poetic expressions and maybe find a way to see the hope in the process, good or bad it's all the way you choose to see it. Thank you for your support.
