It is common knowledge in the world that we are our worst enemies. We often stay locked up in the chains of low self esteem... We look into the mirrors that we are caged inside and often reflect back to ourselves how worthless, ugly, and unwanted we are. But what if I were to tell you... There is something beyond the reflection? What if when we stared into the mirror we were really looking blindly into another world. As we press into the mirror and free ourselves, we become a mirror to reflect the love of One that all turn away from and when we return, we see things differently...

Within a person is always a spirit in a cage
A cage crafted of an unbreakable mirror
In the reflection is a merciless critic who
Tears and breaks you down with silence
Each time you accept the lies out of its mouth
A newly fashioned link to your shackles appears
It's all you know; it's all you have; it never changes

But just beyond the reflection, you see a light
As far as you can remember you never could break free
But this time is so different, your feet walk through the shackles
As if you are walking with water beneath your feet
You press into the mirror, causing ripples in the glass;
You fall into a dark, dark valley, and past the valley you see the light
The dawning sun is rising beyond the mountains yonder

Through the valley of shadows, you have no fear
For a Hand seems to be on your heart, guiding your way
Through the valley of shadows, your courage rises
And through the valley of shadows, your faith is being refined
Through the valley of shadows and onto the the Land of Light
And the valley is where you find you're closer to the One who created you
Beyond the reflection is the journey to Home through the valley of shadows
