Melodic Mantras: Mirrors are Portals

Mirrors are portals
Have you ever looked at your reflection and seen someone staring back at you

I have
The faces of my ancestors are reflected back at me

They are me
Past lives interwoven into the present
Time is but an illusion
There is no stopping or starting point

We were taught about the concept of days, time, and hours
And they are used as a mechanism to control and instill fear
Soon after, we start to feel like we are behind
Losing in this game that we call life

And there is a sense of urgency to catch up
But don't fear
You cannot be too late for your destiny
What is meant for you is making its way to you

Just like your reflection in the mirror
It has taken time for your reflection to travel back to you
For the light to be reflected back
Therefore, it is already in the past

But to you, it showed up right on time
Just remember that
The next time you see your reflection in a mirror and you feel like you are behind

Just know that you are truly right on time

Mirrors are portals
