A MEDITATION

“ The goal of life is living in agreement with nature.

— Zeno of Citium

Fragment, in Diogenes Laertius 7.87

On fate

← Browsing by Zeno of Citium →

A reflection

Not "be outdoorsy" — be aligned. Nature here means the way things actually are: you'll age, things will break, people will disappoint you, and some won't. A life fought against this is exhausting. A life lived with it is sane.
