Brilliant creation. Even through I am an older woman I could relate to your thoughts on so many levels. I also talk to myself everyday in the mirror it is part if my personal development. When I brush my teeth I ask myself was I a good person yesterday do I need to change any patterns or behaviors but must of all do I need to make any amends to anyone that I wronged. With age come awareness and knowledge and that is a blessed thing. Thanks for your heartfelt poem......appreciated.
