We should hand everybody a mirror,
tell them to have a good long look,
ask if that’s who they really want to be.
We should offer everybody a rifle,
see who’s interested in having one,
and hand them the mirror again instead.
We should give everyone a photo album
with photos of everyone else’s family.
We should build a planetary dinner table.

Yes, excellent. Mirror or no mirror, people aught to realize is that everything they see outside of them selves, reflects what is inside. Great post.
