Tite Kubo once said that “In this world, perfection is an illusion. Regardless of all those who utter the contrary, this is the reality. Obviously mediocre fools will forever lust for perfection and seek it out. However, what meaning is there in perfection? None. Not a bit. ...After perfection there exists nothing higher. Not even room for creation which means there is no room for wisdom or talent either.” As much as I love Tite Kubo, I have to disagree with his statement, I personally believe that everything that we do that is reflected of and upon us is perfect.

I know that I am not the only one who feels that they have to slap a layer of foundation on my face to leave my house. Now I am asking the question why? Why do we feel that we are not good enough to leave as we are? The answer is how we perceive ourselves through our reflection. It has taken me many years to accept the fact that what I see in the mirror is perfect. I 'm not going to lie to you and tell you that there aren 't times when I desire to be better, it 's just due to the fact that every second matters.

A mirror 's existence is solely to reflect that which is placed in front of it. The image that is produced when the mirror is whole is flawless; it is not distorted in any manner. When the reflection that was created is damaged due to the mirror being shattered it breaks apart and what once was is produced into multiple incomplete images.

Therefore the once matchless image was limited by itself; through being smashed and crushed these broken pieces that are considered worthless hold a greater meaning. They may not reflect one image, but they represent a future of vast possibilities. For example, I want you to imagine a mirror, one that reflects your ideal self, now once that mirror takes a beat-down most people do not see anything of value. They can only see pieces of themselves, and those pieces mean nothing to them; now picture this, that mirror has transformed and changed its form. It is now a disco ball; by putting these pieces together, it has surpassed its previous self. This form allows it to reflect things in three hundred and sixty degrees; it allows a broader perspective. Although reflections change due to their surfaces, they will always shed their best light to show
