211021 What I learned in my studies this morning
Sweet songs on the wind
Float down the stream of the day.
Washing over all.

Daily Stoic:
If posterity thinks well of me, that'd be great. If not, or if they forget me entirely, that would be really hard to accept, except that I won't have to accept it. I'll be dead.
So, instead of worrying about what people I will never know think of me (laying aside any anxiety of what my "legacy" may be), I shift my focus to my actions here and now.
If I act according to nature — practicing wisdom, courage, justice, and temperance, caring for others / being kind, helping my community, etc. — my legacy will take care of itself.
