August 16th Reading from The Daily Stoic - Anything Can Be An Advantage


"Just as the nature of rational things has given to each person their rational powers, so it also gives us this power - just as nature turns to its own purpose any obstacle or opposition, sets its place in the destined order, and co-opts it, so every rational person can convert any obstacle into the raw material for their own purpose."

~ Marcus Aurelius, Meditations, 8.35
