“Mirror, mirror on the wall, how did others see me today? I know they didn’t see it all.

Was I a reflection of God’s Will, or did I show only imperfection? Did I accept immorality through another man’s eyes, speech or action? Did I remember I had a Soul, and the Goal of It — Perfection?

Was I ashamed to be me? to show the Goal God expects of me? Was I afraid to have other men see me stand for Purity?

A mirror is only a reflection of my outward appearance. It does not read my mind, and show me what I am thinking, speaking, or my degree of intelligence, my real physical condition, or my talents. Plus, it never shows the condition of my Soul. Only I know the degree of my moral behavior, and the habits in everyday living that reflect in and on my Soul; also, my degree of sincere obedience to God’s Will and God’s Rules.

Reflection of myself in a mirror constantly, would become tiring to see, because my self-image would become the focal point of attention, and in essence would envelop my whole life into a conceited self-love, self-indulgent course of ego, vanity, that would eventually destroy any inward beauty that might be, plus eliminate the extent of my intellect to do many things. My will would become obsolete because of my lack of using it.

But also, I realize a constant, consistent attention to seeing myself every moment of the day and night would cause a mental block to reality.

WHAT IF A MIRROR COULD SHOW ME A
REFLECTION OF MY SOUL
HOURLY — DAILY — WEEKLY — YEARLY?

WHAT WOULD IT LOOK LIKE AT
THE END OF THE YEAR?

IF IT IS SHADOWED, SHADED, THE SOUL WOULD APPEAR SHATTERED.

IF IT IS BRIGHT YET HAS DULL AREAS, THE SOUL WOULD APPEAR SAD.

IF IT IS BRIGHT WITH HOPE, THE SOUL WILL APPEAR HAPPY, BRIGHT, AND EVEN RADIANT.”
