February 25th Reading from The Daily Stoic - The Smoke and Dust of Myth

"Keep a list before your mind of those who burned with anger and resentment about something, of even the most renowned for success, misfortune, evil deeds, or any special distinction. Then ask yourself, how did that work out? Smoke and dust, the stuff of simple myth trying to be legend . . ."

~ Marcus Aurelius, Meditations, 12.27
