Reflections

     Light enables us to see.  Ideas enable us to think.
     The Times/Picayune newspaper has a section called Reflections where editorials and opinions are published.  Readers may submit letters to-the-editor in reply or on original topics.  Professionals and amateurs can share their thoughts.
     Our mirror creates reflections where we can analyze our appearance, fix our hair, and apply health and beauty products.  Sometimes we see imperfections and signs of aging in face and body.  Other times we realize we are OK and good enough as is.
     We should look beyond the mirror and reflect on what we think.  We can listen to and read other viewpoints which will help our own thinking.  We can voice our opinions and write about our thoughts.  Our behavior can be a reflection of our values and morals when we practice what we preach.  Sometimes, however, we say one thing and do another.  Actions often speak louder than words.
     After reflection, we can expand and alter our thinking, but at times, we may believe we are OK and good enough as is.
