One who never meditates, is like a person who never looks in the mirror; therefore, not knowing that they are untidy, they goes out looking disorderly. The person who meditates and directs their thoughts to God, Who is the mirror of of their soul, tries to know their faults, attempts to correct them, moderates their impulses, and puts their conscience in order.
