Once in a time and place much like ours, there was a family who lived in a house where they had a full length mirror. Every morning Dad would stand in front of the mirror and tie his necktie, getting it just right. Mom would stop in front of the mirror to check Her hair and make up. The kids liked to look at themselves in the mirror too.
One day the mirror said "Everyday you each stand in front of me and I see you looking at yourself. I don't mind that except for one thing, I have never seen myself in a mirror and so I have no idea what I look like. Do you think you could bring another mirror here so that I may see exactly what I look like?"
The Dad and Mom looked at each other and Dad said "well, yes we could do that for you." So the family went out and got another nice full length mirror, brought it home and stood it right in front of their old mirror. The mirror was quiet for a moment, then smiled as it said "Aha! So that's who I am."
