The Man In The Mirror
Tuesday, March 16, 2004
For my first post I shall share my philosophy on life and inspiration for this blogs title...
*I had to use Man In The Mirror since Man In The Glass was already taken =X *
The man in the glass
When you get what you want in this struggle for self
and the world makes you king for a day
Just go to a mirror and look back at yourself
and see what that man has to say
For it isn't your parents - your children - or wife
Who judgment upon you must pass
The fellow whose verdict counts most in your life
Is the one staring back from the glass.
Some people may think you a stright-shooting chum
And call you a wonderful guy
But the man in the glass say's you're only a bum
If you can't look him straight in the eye.
He's the fellow to please, nevermind all the rest
For he's with you clear up to the end
And you've passed your most dangerous, difficult test
If the man in the glass is your friend
You may fool the whole world down the pathway of life
And get pats on your back as you pass
But your final reward will be heartache and tears
If you've cheated the man in the glass.
