When I am alone, I make myself feel better by looking deep into my own eyes in the mirror.
I don’t know how it happens, but every time I see myself in the mirror, I smile to myself, find that life is beautiful, and I’m just glad to be alive. I have many times heard that other people do not like to watch themselves in the mirror. The truth is that I feel sorry for all those people. Luckily, I am not one of them. I feel remarkable joy while seeing my eyes and my face, and my body in the mirror. While doing it, I often remind myself of the past times of my life. I remind many happy moments that happened to me. How glad I am that those moments were practically always, throughout all years of my life.
Moreover, while seeing my face in the mirror, I often think about the bright future.
I do not know how it’s possible, but I was and still am convinced that the future ahead of me will be the bright one throughout my whole life. Still, no matter what happens to me in the future, I always hope to be a happy person. Of course, some things can break my heart, mind, and soul. I should never forget about Fyodor Dostoyevsky’s happenings in life. I wrote more details about them in the post named “Adversity.” When I think about many unfortunate things in a Russian writer’s life, I imagine that only death can conquer my soul.
Still, even if I have moments of weakness, I know how to make myself feel better. When I am alone, I observe myself in the mirror. But, what if I am with my beloved Kamilka? I hug her. Undoubtedly, the closeness of a dear partner is one of the best ways to improve one’s mood.
