Stroke, cancer and diseases can change a person's appearance drastically. This I have experienced first hand.


STRANGER IN THE MIRROR Looking into the mirror and what do I see, I do not recognize the person Staring back at me. The illness and pain have Changed me immensely, I can feel it all so intensely. I cannot believe the image I see Actually is a New Me. I'm guessing acceptance is the key Since I am unable to afford Re-constructive surgery. I so miss the old me and how I use to be. Would it be best To put the old me to rest? It is just so unsettling to see This stranger looking back at me.

I can relate. I had very bad acne when I was a teen, and it still shows today in pock marks. Good write.

I enjoyed "Stranger in the Mirror" because it could be about getting older, recovering from a sickness, re-inventing or repackaging ourselves or whatever. Thanks it was quite inspirational.

I Say I Do Know If (God) Gave Me Gift Of Anything:

He (God) Gave Me Gift Of MISERY----

You Must Learn To Make Best Of What You Have Got Left!!

In Face Of MISERY You (I) Must Not Look In Mirror-But Look In(To) Myself...

Interesting observation, but the real you still resides inside and needs to surface again. So sorry for all you have endured, but you are now a survivor. God bless...

Be always safe,
Karen

Powerful eloquence!
When life unravels it is very painful, and I understand this. Your writing is sure to teach others compassion.
Blessings,
Christine
