Beauty is eternity gazing at itself in a mirror But you are eternity and you are the mirror?

An unusual question but on that demands some sort of answer. Let us take the Word Beauty, and I have chosen this definition "An outstanding example of its kind". And the Word Eternity for which I have chosen "Time without end". So what do others see us as,

an outstanding example who will have no end for our lives are eternal? And is that how we see ourselves? We reflect only that which we are.
