260726 What I learned in my studies this morning 6**

Today's Meditation(s):

Discourses 2.2, 21 by Epictetus (Waterfield)

(This one's going in the book. I'd forgotten about it.)

Learn the basics, set my foundation, build slowly, practice . . . flow.

When I get confused or uncertain, go back to the beginning: what is up to me? what is consistent with reason? what follows Nature? what can wisdom, justice, courage, and temperance offer? are my values focused on the right thing?

And my own: am I being kind?
