Surrounded by Wolves
Being able to stand was a miracle and when I looked in the mirror, I saw the biggest miracle of all.
In my past life, I started to avoid a mirror at one point. The person I saw was not the person I wanted to see. In my head, I could still picture myself as a child who was sickly but was not on the verge of death but when I looked into the mirror and saw my ribs, my long neck and gaunt face, that image was always shattered. When I looked into the mirror, I was confronted by my reality; a reality I wished to escape but found myself trapped in.
