The world is a mirror, forever reflecting what you are doing within yourself.

- ignoramous 5mo ago> amazingly deep proverb You misunderstand. You can't claim to speak for all "mature" & "cultured" people. That is, who gets to judge those who don't conform to one specific observed / inferred worldview, aren't "cultured" or "mature" enough? (if it wasn't clear, this question isn't an invitation to debate). > Let's expand on it a bit. Is the world a mirror to street salespeople? Is the world a mirror to stalkers?
