There is nothing quite like realizing that the world around you is about to change. That your life is about to change. That the lives around you are about to change. And even in that instant that it comes to you, and you have this thought. Nothing has prepared you for it.
A door opens, and you stand there to the bathroom mirror, with only your reflection starring back at you.
And you wonder, "Who is this before me? Who will I become?" Many questions about your life and who you are flash before your mind. You you are completely unprepared, to answer anything, or feel anything. Because even though you know life is about to change. You can't face the fact that no matter how much you want to let go, and just feel, you want to shell up and hide. You don't want people to know. You don't want people to talk.
You want to become a shut in. A hermit. You want to live your life, by yourself, facing your own demons and the demons that plege those around you.
But you know that you have to face them.
So you look back into that mirror, ready to face that person who looks back at you.
The stare, that leads into a slight smile, followed by a full fledged grin.
Now you know. That no matter what happens in this instant, in this moment, in this minute you can work with. You can't change the future, you can't change the past, but you can focus on the present. You can put yourself into making the present what counts.
So no matter how daunting the task. You can face tomorrow, with hope, faith and courage to live again.
There before me in the mirror stands, the woman I am, the woman I have become, and the woman I will fight to continue to be.
There stands me.
