Since I have lots of new people on my friends list thanks to a combination of Phoenix Rising and Strikethrough '07 (best friending meme, evar!), this is where you get to ask random questions and I'll answer them.
While I could say something long and complicated about my fictional worlds or my townhouse or my own glory, I think the fact is that the Mirror of Erised shows us not just our greatest desire, but our greatest sadness as interpretted through desire. In which case, I i'magine it would be some variation merely on being chosen first for something. I tend to, or at least perceive myself as the perennial second choice -- professionally and personally in the lives and worlds of others.
Brilliant interpretation of the Mirror. I guess that's why it drives people mad. Maybe we're all supposed to have a hole of sadness that may be filled, only to have another tear in the fabric rip open to discover yet another hole.
