In answer to your question "which one truly refelcts me?"; Your perception of the image in the mirror is the one that truely reflects you. However this reflection is an image from the past as you have to factor the time difference into the equation and your relative distance from the mirror.
Hence if we accept the assumption that you stand 3 feet away from the mirror and calculating the speed of light at 983,571,056.4 feet per second. This means that the actual perceived image is, in reality, 6 nanoseconds older that the current image. Technically you are looking into the past at an earlier image of yourself.
If you think you are ugly when you view pictures of yourself from an earlier time, then you are ugly............but when you view yourself in a mirror; Due to the shorter time lapse, you are not as ugly.
Please take a little consellation in the fact that beauty is only skin deep.............but ugliness goes all the way to the middle!!!!
