Just a bit of inspiration taking us into the weekend..

Taken from The daily Stoic, 366 mediations on Wisdom, perseverance, and the art of living..*available for delivery through Amazon prime, 8.99 a month*

JAN 2OTH..

REIGNITE YOUR THOUGHTS...

" your principles can't be extinguished unless you snuff out the thoughts that feed them, for it's continually in your power to reignite new ones. It's possible to start living again see things and you as you wants did– this is how to restart life".

Marcus Aurelius, Meditations 7.2.

Have you had a bad couple of weeks? Have you been drifting away from the principles and beliefs that you hold dear? It's perfectly fine it happens to us all.

In fact, it probably happened to Marcus- that may be why he scribbled this note to himself perhaps has been dealing with difficult to send it also having difficulties with his troubled son. Perhaps early scenarios he lost his temper, became depressed 2, or stop checking in with himself. Who wouldn't.

But the reminder here is that no matter what happens, no matter how disappointing our behaviours been in the past the principles themselves remain unchanged. We can return and embrace them at any moment. What happened yesterday- what happened 5 minutes ago- is the past. We can reignite and restart whenever we like.

Why not do it right now?

Have a great day people, enjoy what ever it brings you...peace and love.

Love a bit of Marcus Aurelius, and although fab was the last place I expected to come across some stoic philosophy this morning, I'm pleased to see it!

Have a great day, OP
