About This Quote
A friend is like a mirror: he’s the one who reflects your light most accurately. However, a close friend not only reflects your self but enhances and embellishes it. This quote from Miguel Cervantes says so much about friendship and the power of a friend. Friends reflect a person’s true colors back to them.
They don’t just see you, they see another part of you that you don’t even see yourself. They see your strengths and can bring out those strengths in you. They are the ones who make you feel better when you are down, or encourage you when you are at your best.
