Never under compulsion, out of selfishness, without forethought, without misgivings. No surplus words or unnecessary actions. Let the spirit in you represent a man. Taking up his post like a soldier and patiently awaiting his recall from life. Needing no oath or witness. Cheerfulness. Without requiring other people’s help. Or serenity supplied by others. To stand up straight, not straightened.

Marcus Aurelius, Meditations




Because you can take it.


Strength takes planning.


Be ok anyway.


Anyway. Still. Despite.

452: Giants

Not defeated, nonetheless shook and dispersed, a once formidable confidence.

In all things cheerful now. In time, moving forward makes whole again the giants we once were.


Reflect most upon loss when there is abundance.




Duty; to be good, just and useful.


The love of family.


Clarity of the senses. Sun, Wind, and Earth.
