Monday Evening Text for Reflection for Stoic Week 2016:
"Let us go to our sleep with joy and gladness; let us say ‘I have lived; the course which
Fortune set for me is finished.’ And if God is pleased to add another day, we should
welcome it with glad hearts. That man is happiest, and is secure in his own
possession of himself, who can await the morrow without apprehension. When a man
has said: ‘I have lived!’, every morning he arises he receives a bonus."
– Seneca,
Letters, 12.9
