221025 What I learned in my studies this morning 2

Hindrances and dams
Barring canyons, deep, boundless.
Water finds a way.

Daily Stoic:

All Marcus lists — wealth, office, kingdom, and more — are externals I cannot control.  Wealth may be lost, stolen, or taxed.  Office may be recalled or stripped.  Kingdom may dissolve or abandon me.  Health may crumble due to circumstances or unknown defect.  Life itself may flee at any moment.

I can count on none of these to provide sure comfort and lasting benefit.  Only the internal working of my mind are mine alone.  Only they can be counted on to prove resilient and trustworthy.  Only they are constant companions, giving peace and tranquility.

Here is where I put my efforts.
