“The mirror is my best friend because when I cry it never laughs”
— Charlie Chaplin
Simplified Meaning:
When people feel sad or start crying, they might worry about others laughing at their emotions. A mirror, however, only reflects what it sees and remains neutral, without judgment. It can feel comforting because it shows our true feelings without mocking us. For example, if a child is upset and looks in the mirror, it won’t make fun of the child's tears; instead, it will just show them as they are. This idea suggests that sometimes, it’s better to face our emotions alone rather than in front of others who might not understand. It encourages people to find comfort in their own company and to accept their feelings without fear of being judged or ridiculed.
