August 25th Reading from The Daily Stoic - Respect The Past, But Be Open To The Future


"Won't you be walking in your predecessors' footsteps? I surely will use the older path, but if I find a shorter and smoother way, I'll blaze a trail there. The ones who pioneered these paths aren't our masters, but our guides. Truth stands open to everyone, it hasn't been monopolized."

~ Seneca, Moral Letters, 33.11
