Saturday Morning Meditation for Stoic Week 2016

"Be like the headland on which the waves break constantly, which still stands firm
while the foaming waters are put to rest around it. ‘It is my bad luck that this has
happened to me!’ On the contrary, say, ‘It is my good luck that, although this has
happened to me, I can bear it without getting upset, neither crushed by the present
nor afraid of the future'."

 – Marcus Aurelius, Meditations, 4.49
