What if the Mirror of Erised shows up to me?


As you all know, I am taking my Harry Potter classes as my Literature Elective class. I really really adore this novel, so I'm really really having fun. And if you may ask, what house I belong to? I BELONG TO RAVENCLAW!

Anyway, we discussed book 1 today, we had this trivial trivial VERY trivial test, as in the minor details that you overlooked was asked, and alas, I got 23/25. DANG YOU TYPE OF WOOD! haha.

So as our discussion deepens, Professor Sangil asked, "What will you see in the Mirror of Erised when it shows up to you?"

While going home, I really thought about it. What will it show?

I've listed these three possibilities:
1) Senator John Daniel G. Salonga;
2) (bit personal but something to do on having a relationship); and lastly,
3) Dad called me and said that I am the prince of this kingdom. a.k.a. PRINCESS DIARIES-esque

But honestly, my co-housemate, the Headgirl is right, why should I want to see the mirror if I know it won't happen. As my professor said, "Ron's desire is BEING, Harry's desire is BECOMING". Of course, his dead parents won't live again diba?!

So what should be someone's desire: one that will be his BEING or his BECOMING?

You, what will the Mirror of Erised show you?
