210920 What I learned in my studies this morning
Bah! I got nothing.
No images or ideas.
Clever words run dry.
Daily Stoic:
Life often takes a grace and flexibility I lack. The dancer's agility, a talent I wish I had, escapes me. If I use that as my metaphor, I'll be hard put. A wrestler's power and strategy, tactics and determination and use of sudden action, however, are closer to my natural gifts.
I must train myself to be accept reality more readily and to allow my will to flow with the Tao or, as the Stoics would put it, "in accordance with Nature."
These are areas in which I can progress if I listen. Nature and my nature and my soul will tell me the way. They will show me how to embrace life as it is and overcome the obstacles that deny my way.
More like combat than entertainment.
