Reflection

Today I answered a test titled " which Disney song describes my life right now", guess what was the song? Reflection from Mulan.
I like the movie so much, the first part and the second, but really whenever I heard this song I would feel like it was made for me, it really describes how I feel now. Read what they said in the test and then read the lyrics of the song.
Your life now can be described by Reflection, from Mulan
You are not quite sure of your place in the world at this point and are not sure whom you actually are. You wonder why your reflection is someone you don't know. Confused by the demands of different people or forces in your life, you feel like you are being pulled in every direction.
Oftentimes by following one direction, you feel like you are not being true to yourself. Don't worry though; your uncertainty is as natural as life itself. There is always time to explore.
For now, feel free to travel and see the world, challenge yourself, and test your limits. Slowly you will begin to figure out what ignites your passion, and if you pursue that, you will find yourself!
Reflection
Look at me
You may think you see who I really am
But you'll never know me
Every dayIt's as if I play a part
Now I seeIf I wear a maskI can fool the world
But I cannot fool my heart
Who is that girl I see
Staring straight back at me?
When will my reflection show
Who I am inside?
I am nowIn a world where I have to hide my heart
And what I believe in
But somehowI will show the world
What's inside my heart
And be loved for who I am
Who is that girl I see
Staring straight back at me?
Why is my reflection someone I don't know?
Must I pretend that I'm, Someone else for all time?
When will my reflection show
Who I am inside?
There's a heart that must be free to fly
That burns with a need to know the reason why
Why must we all conceal
What we think
How we feel
Must there be a secret meI'm forced to hide?
I won't pretend that I'm
Someone else For all time
When will my reflection show
Who I am inside?
When will my reflection show
Who I am inside?

    Sub7annallah! The test applies perfectly. Yet I think you might be putting your foot at the first step of the road to finding yourself and your limits. Or you may have done that long ago. I don't think the road has to be ever definite. I guess the keyword is "if God is not angry with me, I don't care".

    I once read that self confidence is not being certain. It is being "cool with uncertainty". So be cool, Ellie. We know you're not afraid to stand alone, if Allah is by your side ;)

  2. Dear Ellie, when you are standing in the middle of the road, puzzled, and don't know where or to where are you going, just look for the best road forward….

    Keep going Ellie; sure, you are on the right track, coz you are following not only your mind but your heart as well.

    And put in mind, that being confused is a healthy sign for being a thinker : D, I'd just like to confess, that you "Ellie" inspire me even if you were in your most depressing moment

  3. Reflection clears the way, it's only when we reflect that we see ourselves...
