But last time I reblogged one ten/fifteen minutes later I got a call offering me a job

But I reblogged it because I was waiting on hearing back from the job. So there you go.

It may just be me, I don’t know. But every single time I see this on my dash or on someone’s blog or anywhere else, I kind of just breathe a sigh of relief. That’s one more person who cares. That’s one more person who doesn’t hate me.

Because it means so much, especially when all the media is spewing out is that I’m a terrible person and no one wants people like me near them. It means so much because I’m tired of people who won’t sit next to me in class, or who choose to join the longer line at the grocery store because they don’t want to be beside me and my family. It means so much when I have to lift my head any time someone says the words Islam or Muslim because I’m scared that they’ll say something that’ll hurt, when I have to pay attention to the news because who knows what so and so is saying now, who knows which of my people are being attacked now, who knows what’s going to happen to me now.

It means so much because I’ve been given the idea that the world is against me. And a huge part of it may be, but at least I’ve been reminded that some of it, just a small group of people, acknowledges that I’m a person too. That people like me are just that, people.

(And a single person can have multiple mirrors)

A mirror can reflect different people.  A character can symbolise several people at the same time.  That’s why there can be parallels between Eurus and Sherlock and Eurus and John.  Eurus and Mycroft, even: the sky is the limit if you find some parallel or equivalence, some way to use her symbolism in your analysis.

A character like Eurus is deeply allegorical because they’re there to shed light on the whole story.  So, there’s no competition between whether Eurus is Sherlock or John.  She is both.  She is every person, she’s you and me.  She is a theme.  She is love: suppressed, hidden, turned monstrous and self-destructive.  She is self-imposed loneness and isolation.  (Here check this out, here’s an additional Eurus parallel.  Spoiler alert: It’s Sholto).  

We’ve even seen the idea that a mirror can be symbolic of multiple people and of one person in multiple ways lots of times, 

So, while, yes, the plot may reveal that some of the story was the dream of one character and not another, this does not negate all the meaning that’s put into these mirrors.  

Eurus is not ultimately John and therefore not Sherlock or vice versa: it’s a matter of perspective.  This is like arguing over an MC Escher painting.  Are the horses going one way or the other?  No, it’s both.  It’s either.  It depends on how you look at it,
