Wisdom from the World’s Most Controversial Stoic Seneca

in #stoic4 years ago

s09nwl.jpgNo one will bring back the years; no one will restore you to yourself. Life will follow the path it began to take, and will neither reverse nor check its course. It will cause no commotion to remind you of its swiftness, but glide on quietly. It will not lengthen itself for a king’s command or a people’s favor. As it started out on its first day, so it will run on, nowhere pausing or turning aside. What will be the outcome? You have been preoccupied while life hastens on. Meanwhile death will arrive, and you have no choice in making yourself available for that.

Stop being so busy, I must request you here. Spend some time with yourself and your loved ones.

You won’t get this time again.

Think about this before you sleep tonight.
