I am blogging everyday (or nearly everyday) on The Daily Stoic.

Yesterday - Once Is Enough, Once Is Forever

I recognize that there are ups and downs in life. It’s a part of life. I try to appreciate when they’re high and understand that when they’re low they’re only temporarily. I think I may try to hold onto the highs a little more and need to instead accept that I can’t hold onto it forever. I think stoicism has helped balance at more things where it’s in the middle.

Today - The Glass Is Already Broken

Consider the possibility of devastation. I try to look at objects as if they’ll break at some point or get lost. I collect glass wear from breweries and hats from all over the place. I try to remember that those items could be broken or lost at any point. I try to see that not happens but I’ve lost enough of both or grown tired of them that I recognize them as things that will be gone at some point.
