210521 What I learned in my studies this morning
Am I sufficiently accustomed to the idea that I may someday lose the things I have? Have I practiced amor fati, love of fate, enough that I can confidently say to myself, "If tomorrow I am robbed of [health / wealth / this or that thing / this or that person], I can endure."?
I doubt it. It's something I need to work on. It's not about not caring or giving up, it's about persevering in the face of hardship.
I've done it once in my life. I still struggle with that loss. He'd have been 12 today.
But I have miles to go before I sleep....
