Mirrors

I use mirrors to ground myself in reality.

I've always loved mirrors. I have always been mesmerized by this curious reflective surface. Is that reality or something else?

If I spend a lot of time without staring at my own reflection I start losing my own perspective of being. I lose who I am. I start feeling disconnected. When I see myself again I remember I am, in fact, alive and well. I feel ok again. I feel like I'm real.

Does anyone relate to that? It's an isolating sensation. I've never felt like this before.
