“When you look at yourself do you like what you see?
If you like what you see you’re the person you should be
Cause your reflection reflects in everything you do
And everything you do reflects on you.
When you wake up each day do you like how you feel?
If you like how you feel you’ve got nothing to conceal
Cause your reflection reflects in everything you do
And everything you do reflects on you.
…
When you lay down to sleep do you like all your dreams?
If you like all your dreams life’s as happy as it seems
Cause your reflection reflects in everything you do
And everything you do reflects on you.”
Sounds like a kids song, but the lyrics are from the 1973 musical version of “The Lost Horizon.” And, simple as they are, they ring true!
Burt Bacharach wrote the music; Hal David wrote the lyrics. The movie was a major box office and critical flop, but the words stuck in my head when I was flipping through channels early this morning . . . “Cause your reflection reflects in everything you do, And everything you do reflects on you”!
