I posted this quote from Marcus Aurelius a few days agao.
““Awaken; return to yourself. Now, no longer asleep, knowing they were only dreams, clear-headed again, treat everything around you as a dream.”
It’s been echoing around in my mind since then. I’ve been trying to think of life in this way.
I’ve found it very useful. It provides some distance. It puts things into context. Worldly things seem less important, and you can focus on what’s really important.
