Long ago in a small, far away village, there was place known as the
House of 1000 Mirrors. A small, happy little dog learned of this
place and decided to visit.
When he arrived, he bounced happily up the
stairs to the doorway of the house. He looked
through the doorway with his ears lifted high and his tail wagging as
fast as it could. To his great surprise, he found himself staring at
1000 other happy little dogs with their tails wagging just as fast as
his. He smiled a great smile, and was answered with 1000 great smiles
just as warm and friendly. As he left the House, he thought to
himself, "This is a wonderful place. I will come back and visit it
often."
In this same village, another little dog, who was not quite as happy as
the first one, decided to visit the house. He slowly climbed the stairs
and hung his head low as he looked into the door. When he saw the 1000
unfriendly looking dogs staring back at him, he growled at them and was
horrified to see 1000 little dogs growling back at him. As he left, he
thought to himself, "That is a horrible place, and I will never go back
there again."
All the faces in the world are mirrors. What kind of reflections do you
see in the faces of the people you meet?
