mirror me? The mirror sees the man as beautiful, the mirror loves the man; another mirror sees the man as frightful and hates him; and it is always the same being who produces the impressions. -- Marquis D.A.F. de Sade 991111 ... amy the mirror is not making anything clearer. 991209 ... wailer is gonna brake one of these days 000121 ... Christy The image hasn't truly changed. The eyes are the same deep brown, but they shine a bit more. The mouth is still small, but its corners tilt up ever-so-slightly. The shoulders are still broad, but are now squared to face the world. The hips still curve, but they have been smoothed by loving hands. The fingers are still long, but stretch in a languid caress. The image hasn't truly changed, but the woman has. 000426 ... friar tuck Many years ago, the image hadn't truly changed. Same sad yet hopeful eyes, same sandy debonoir hair. Same smiling lips. That image didn't change for a long time, thruogh many lovers, thruogh many years. And thruogh many changes, unrevealed by those who saw the image; even when that person behind the image strengthened and broadened. Eventually, though, passing time caught up. The passing years added veins and roughness; the passing emotions--actually, not passed, but held on to--added lines of sadness & regret. I held on to my youth for a much longer time than most I know. I now wish I'd made better use of it than to watch myself dodge the consequences of my mistaken thinking. 000426 ...

Look what you've done... your not beautiful anymore... your not cute anymore." I used to be so fucking cute... I used to be skinny, too. "Damn, your fat now! You have to lose at leats 40 pounds if you want to look good this summer. You have to lose it if you want him to notice you." Now I look into the mirror only to realise what a beautiful, caring young woman I have become. Now I realise all I did was grow up. "Your even prettier now...Look at you, just look." My grin is gone...
