TextMail: House of 1000 Mirrors
House of 1000 Mirrors
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?

I believe that the faces I see are smiling and happy so I think that I would be very happy to visit the house of 1000 mirrors!!
WHAT A SIMPLE STORY TO DESCRIBE SUCH A GREAT IDEA!
I WILL FORWARD THIS TO ALL MY FRIENDS.
THANKS FOR THE NICE THOUGHT.
such a nice story, and so true!!!
so true!…yet not always as easy…
If its really true why we don’t act upon it !
nice and beautiful story……
this is really something we should think about… its about choices, there are only two things always: good and bad, or happy or sad… you can only choose one and it better be the best
We don’t see the world as it is … We see the world as we are.. !!
Small story with lot of message. It’s finally Attitude.
Well, there is a lot more to story then most of us understand. First dog was happy so he got happy response but
what about the other dog. It does not make a difference how people will react to you, but yes what matters is are
you happy and is happiness attainable, is it in our own hands- if yes then only one mirror is required not thousand
yes…. its always good to have an outward approachabble appearance…. i have to learn from this story…. or else i may never be able to get happy responses in life
We experience the world from our sense and the corretness of such experience is only so much as correct these sense probs can be. And senses are proved to give incorrect inputs at times, like mirage. Mind keeps labelling them.who truly you are? can there be true identification of external world?
I love this story, i copy it to my weblog. But Could you replace dog with some good animal
Its a true story…..what we are is what we likely get n wish to.
Never stop smiling and looking forward to each new day…
Thanks for such a nice sweet story…
Wake up and smell the coffee. If life is as simple as that, I would not have to get up and go to work today. Might as well stay at home and smile at the mirror.
Really good and really interesting post. I expect (and other readers maybe :)) new useful posts from you!
Good luck and successes in blogging!
Dig the blog a LOT!
Nice style and I like the way you discuss the tracks. I’m going to book mark it.
It is a really wonderful thought!
As Good as it can get …,!
What a wonderful way to teach… Hats off man….
LOVE IT!
It is as you say… truly those around us are the mirrors of ours lives reflecting back to us what we are. Thank-you for your inspirational work.

Feel Every Moment
Life is like a rainbow, Good from a distance as you enjoy;
But try to capture it, And you have nothing to capture.
Don’t try to capture life, Feel every moment you live.

The little plans I tried to carry have failed O’Dear God.
But, I will not sorrow. I will pause a little while and try again tomorrow.
