One day you look in the mirror... and you no longer recognize yourself.

One day you look in the mirror... and you no longer recognize yourself.
One day you look in the mirror... and you don't recognize yourself anymore.
Not in the mirror. Not in a photo. But truly. From within.
We are so used to running on.
Deadlines, expectations, helping others, performing.
And somewhere along the way, we become further and further removed from ourselves.
Until a moment comes. A pause. A look in the mirror that lasts longer than usual.
And then it hits: Who am I, apart from everything I do?
Maybe you feel it.
That vague, gnawing awareness that you've lost yourself somewhere.
That you function, but no longer really live.
That you give, but not always to yourself.
The good news? You can always come back to yourself.
Not through big radical changes.
But by standing still.
By making space.
By seeing yourself again.
And one day you look in the mirror... and you see yourself again.
