  2. TAKE LIFE AS A BANQUET Epictetus (Sharon Lebell)
    Think of your life as if it were a feast where you
    needed to behave gracefully. When the crossbars are
    passed to you, reach out and help yourself to quantities
    moderate. If a platter isn't passed to you, enjoy what's already
    it's on your plate. Or, if the dish has not yet been passed,
    patiently wait your turn.
    Keep that same attitude of restraint and gratitude
    delicate in dealing with their children, spouse, career and finances.
    There is no need to yearn for something, envy or
    take hold of anything. You will receive your due portion
    when your turn comes.
    Diogenes and Heraclitus were impeccable models of people
    who lived according to these principles, instead of letting themselves
    lead by despicable impulses. Aim to imitate the
    valuable example of them.

  3. What if the other door never opens? I've maintained a constant effort on my goals for 2 years of instability, but I'm losing all faith now and lost almost all of my confidence.

    I just need another door but don't know how to find it.

  4. I really dig your openess and reflections about life. Helps me to remember to do the same in mine. Daily stoic was gifted to me, and Ive picked up Meditations recently. Loving them both. Cheers
