I really liked the idea of the “kindness mirror”: a mirror that gives us back a gentler version of ourselves. By the end, that kindness becomes almost a final way of recognizing oneself before leaving.

I love this so much! My mind saw the younger versions of me while who I am now smiled kindly and loved them unconditionally. Really beautiful.

Thank you. Sometimes we’re a bit hard on our younger selves. I guess the advantage of aging is being able to put things into perspective and love ourselves with all the things we got wrong while trying our best…life ain’t easy 🙏💛😘

I struggle with mirrors. But this one sounds magic and friendly.

My besty friend it was, warm mirrors are, I miss it’s flattery, lol 😊

We were all younger once upon a time, and mirrors loved us, and we loved them. What is a warm mirror? A kind one?

Antique mirrors used a different method of silvering I think and seem to reflect a warmer light

I think I know what you mean. Only the older ones. See sometimes old is better ;)

This one stays in me. A

warm mirror. I could see a long line of people standing endlessly, not wanting to leave something that looks

at you and loves you. :)

Thank you Linda…warm mirrors are lovely warm reflections and kindness, even more so.🙏💛😊

There's something empowering about being able to look at yourself in the mirror. It's something I pay attention to ... when I can't do it I know something is off inside ... so I especially appreciated the self-loving nature of this poem. I will be saving it to read it again.

I’m so glad you got some good vibes from it. I wanted to bring out something more positive in this one, I’ve been too negative lately. So I appreciate your comments very much, thank you 🙏 💛😊
