Today's Meditation:

On Providence, Seneca, 4.11

Save for losing my son and now my parents, I've had too soft a life. Worse, I've inflicted this on my children as well.

I've some searching and thinking to do.

How to improve myself. To become more tolerant to cold and lack of comfort. To find my gumption traps and fix them. To practice my premeditatio malorum. even when it's less-than-fun.

How to help my children. Mostly to become more resilient and perseverant.
