What Do You Think When You Look In The Mirror?

I don't, actually.

Or I didn't, until very recently.

While I do glance in mirrors from time to time, as is necessary, I'm not one to consider my personal appearance, as reflected back. While I take pride in being well dressed (because I feel it says something about a person: professionalism [etc.], and, of course, you only get one chance to make a good first impression), I don't feel a need to take stock of my face and features. It has always served me well as is, and it looks like what it looks like. I suppose I could go so far as to say that I do not believe I am an un-handsome man, but I don't think I'd like to be as flashy as some other people. I believe I look honest, which (of course) I am.

It has not escaped my attention that I resemble someone. I made light of it recently, which I thought was very clever of me.

However.

It's slightly disconcerting to think how easily you might be mistaken for someone else. I dislike the thought of being expendable. It is something I would do almost anything to prevent.
