Rearview Mirror

Have you ever watched someone in the back seat of your car through your rearview mirror?  I like to do that with my grandchildren.  While sitting in the car at a red light, I will turn the mirror so we can see each other.  I like to see what kind of goofy faces I will get from them (and yes, I make a few at them as well), and I love to see the big smile on their face. What a beautiful sight to see in that rearview mirror!

I believe there is also a rearview mirror in life we can look into at any given time, and what we see there is a direct reflection of how we have lived our lives.  If you have gone through life living only for yourself, stepping on and using people to get where/what you want, and holding grudges that reflection may be pretty dull and gloomy.  On the other hand, if you have done your best to live a good and honest life, helped others whenever possible and made your family a priority in your life, you are going to see a reflection that is so bright you may need sunglasses to look at it!

What do you see when you look into your rearview mirror?  It’s not too late to change the view if you don’t like it!
