Yes, free yourself from negative perturbations, but also have a little fun. Savor the journey of your life as you live it. The stoics give us some very good advice. They gave us some powerful suggestions to help build up those inner foundations we all need for living a life in full. But, sometimes, taking it all to heart, we still have to add a good measure of our own insight into the mix.
Life is a performance art.
We are all meant to be artists, learning and creating as we go. The stoic art of living can help us on our way as we seek to make our mark in this world, enjoy our proper forms of success, and experience that inner happiness that otherwise might have seemed so elusive. With a little ancient wisdom to build on, we can move forward more effectively, and more confidently into a new millennium.
