The mirror is one of the greatest inventions yet people still do not have the ability to see themselves. So is it a valid question to ask how does one see themselves? Or rather should we ask how does one perceive themselves? It may be a blessing or a curse that one is never able to witness the beauty of their body and especially their face in real-life form...only through an inanimate object made by humans called a mirror. and we know humans are fallible and imperfect and simple oftentimes inaccurate. Therefore we cannot even fully appreciate the utility of this object because it too is inaccurate as its creator is. It is absolutely no way of knowing if what other people see is really the way we look...it is absolutely impossible to know....we all just may be an illusion to each other. Its a shame that I do not and will never know my true extrinsic beauty...however I am not alone...this befalls on us all.
this is tough.
