Family is always a mirror. You can hide from other people, you can even hide from yourself, but your family is going to reflect what you’re doing right back at you.

About This Quote

The idea that family is a mirror is one that is often misunderstood. It is not about the family looking at you and judging you, it is about how the family can reflect back to you what you are doing. Even if others are not present, the way you are living your life will be shown to yourself in the mirror that is your family.
