The other day I was seated in a diner opposite a great mirror. It was awkward carrying on conversation over breakfast whilst seated across from myself, but eventually I grew used to it. Before long, I found myself looking in my own eyes with a deep penetrating gaze that would be more than a little unnerving if I did not know myself quite so well. I saw my soul and found that it was beautiful. Then I fell into my omelet.

Donan, I almost thought you were going to say, fell into God. God… your omelet. Your omelet…God. Breakfast can be like that… :o)
Off the subject while I got you. I attended a concert tonight in a beautifully buttressed church in Cleveland, The Shrine Church of St. Stanislaus Bishop and Martyr, where I heard a premiere by composer Margaret Brouwer, “Concerto for Chamber Orchestra and Violin”. The solo violin was a young woman , Michi Wiancko. Does any of this ring bells? The sheer physicality of this piece… Shadings of Stravinsky early and then almost to the edge of pure fiddle by the end. Blew me away.. Ron
I'm not really that narcissistic! But i really was seated in a diner across from myself (Scarsdale, NY) and the omelet was lovely…sounds like you had a wonderful evening. The depth and breadth of talent in this world is truly amazing.
It's not so much your nacissism, Donan, as my literalism. :o)
Donan,
This is wonderful… :o )
Imagining the profundity of your gaze, and the eggspression on your face! :)
This is great. Thank you. have had a similar experience myself. one finds oneself feeling narcisstic but it's hard not to move into that space of gazing back at yourself. glad it took you to a place of beauty, and understandable that it did.
