Dr. Hounchell's Theory of Life and Everything: Mirrors

Mirrors is the topic of concern today. Mirrors are one of the few ways that you can see yourself. Or at least just the concept of reflection. The only other way would be to pull parts of your body that you can't already see to look at them .
It is interesting how people put special emphasis on the face being who a person is. Granted if you lose your arm,you are still fundamentally the same person that you have always been. Yet, if you lose your face, you are probably dead or at least horrible disfigured.
Although, it makes sense that people would think of the face or even just the head as who a person is. Most of the sense are located in the head. The sense of smell, the sense of taste, and the sense of hearing and seeing. The only one not located in the face is touch, which is all over.
So, this makes me feel as though mirrors are literally only an invention to divert from existential crisis. Because a mirror allows you to see who you are and why. But who knows, I'm not a real doctor.
