A Tale of Two Blogs

Sartre once said, “The more sand that has escaped from the hourglass of our life, the clearer we should see through it.”
Oh Jean-Paul, while this might be so, we don’t have to embrace what we see.
I was hit with that epiphany last night when I was confronted with a vision of myself. It was like a long stare in the mirror. I put my hand on my chest, aghast.
Is that really who I am?
Steven was included in the same portrait. Relentlessly comfortable in his own skin, he appeared so strong and confident beside me. In his eyes I can surely witness the depths of humankind – millions of years reside in his soul. It is all there for the whole universe to see.
Would others say the same of me? As I gave myself a good study, I realized how little I know about my own true self. Introspection is one thing, but to be able to step back and be an observer of yourself – as if you are a third person – that is an opportunity rarely afforded us.
I must chew on this some more. I’m not sure I liked what I saw of myself. I am left confounded and perplexed this morning. I am vexed now to know how others view me.
Look not into the mirror, dearest readers, unless you are fully prepared to see thyself.
