The Mirror of Time

Reflections on the Past and Shaping the Future

In the mirror of time, we see

The person we once used to be

The lessons we've learned along the way

And the memories that have led us to today

We reflect on our past with care

And examine the moments we've had to bear

We learn from our mistakes and our strife

And we use those lessons to shape our life

For the mirror of time is not just a reflection

It's a tool for our own introspection

A way to take stock of our past

And to use that knowledge to create a path

A path that leads to our destiny

A path that guides us to where we need to be

And we know that along the way

We'll face challenges that we'll have to slay

But with each trial and tribulation

We'll find the strength to face our fears and take action

For the mirror of time has shown us the way

And we'll use that knowledge to seize the day

So let us not be afraid to look back

And to examine our life's winding track

For it's only through self-reflection and hindsight

That we can shape our future, and make it bright.
