Distortions

 

I’m sorry, but that isn’t me.

 

That is nothing like how I look in my head.

 

Yes, I know how mirrors work.

 

I’m just saying, I don’t look like that.

 

That’s an old man looking back at me.  That’s nothing like I am.  I’m athletic, I’m full of energy and still believe I can do things.  That guy looks more like some old refugee.  He’s thin, has gray wispy hair.  What kind of mirror is that anyway?

 

Of course, I know it happened over time. 

 

No, I believe you.  I’m just saying I look much different in my head than that old guy in the mirror.
