Through the mirror of my mind
I see reflections of my life.
I see the times I spent in happiness
and the times I spent in strife.

I see the experiences life has brought me
and the lessons that I've learned.
I see the things that were placed before me
and the things, for which, I've worked to earn.

I see the accomplishments I've made,
and the defeats I've had to overcome.
I see the strength I thought I'd lost,
and the emotional battles I've won.

I see the pleasures of giving
and the rewards the giving reaps.
I see the love in my heart
and the emptiness for which I weep.

Through evaluation of my life's events,
I've come to be who I am today.
I keep myself moving in a forward direction
without letting obstacles block my way.

I see the image of the future
as a journey into the unknown.
I see the faith that keeps me going
becomming fruitful seeds I've sown.

A powerful statement about the learning process of life and the strength and heritage of faith.  It speaks of your strength and your good heart. Sheila this is wonderful!

Yeah, I agree, beautiful poem and great message, Sasikat!   I'm still in the process of learning a lot of the basics, and I've got a long ways to go! Thanks for the poem!

Beautiful poem. I wish all the world could see these things that you see, then it would be a better place.
