Sometimes, many times, our greatest gifts do not appear as gifts. They come to us in brown paper, crinkled, dirty and ugly. We mistake them for garbage.

When someone gives us a gift like this, we might prefer to reject it… But try as we might, that gift paper is sticky, and it stays with us.

When we look a little closer, and accept that gift humbly, we might realise it is something so fine that not even our closest friends would think to give to us. In that brown paper package is a little mirror.

In that mirror, we see ourselves.
