A man who has no concept of truth can in no way be called happy. Hence, life is happy if it is invariably based on correct, reasonable judgment. Then the spirit of man is distinguished by clarity; it is free from all bad influences, freed not only from torments, but also from minor pricks: it is always ready to hold the position it has occupied and defend it, despite the cruel blows of fate.

Love your neighbors, but in such a way as not to offend yourself: Be kind to those who are kind, but be afraid of unkind consequences.

Musonius Rufus says that difficulties and trials are not obstacles on the path to virtue, but virtue itself. The more difficulties we face, the more opportunities we have for spiritual growth and development. However, it is important to remember that philosophers do not encourage us to actively seek out difficulties or enjoy suffering. They simply teach us to accept difficulties as an integral part of life and look at them as opportunities for improvement.

Things are not so good with humanity that the majority will vote for the best: a large crowd of adherents is always a sure sign of the worst.

If someone handed your body to the first person they met, you would be indignant, but the fact that you entrust your mind to a random person, so that if they scold you, your mind would become confused and confused, aren’t you ashamed of this?

“He will not boast about it, but he will not hide it either: the first would indicate stupidity, and the second would indicate the timidity and pettiness of a person who imagines that he keeps God knows what good in his pocket. A wise man, as I said, will not throw wealth out of your home"

Waiting is the main obstacle in life; it eternally depends on tomorrow and destroys today. You are trying to manage what is still in the hands of fortune, missing out on what was in your own. The future is unknown; live now!

Life is happy if it is consistently based on correct, reasonable judgment. Then the human spirit is clear; he is free from all bad influences, freed not only from torment, but also from minor pricks: he is always ready to maintain the position he occupies and defend it, despite the fierce blows of fate.

“This is what, Lucilius, do first of all: learn to rejoice. Do you think that I am depriving you of many pleasures if I reject everything accidental and believe that we must avoid hopes - our sweetest joys? Quite the opposite: I want joy not to be separated from you, I want it to be born in your home.”

And this will come true if only it [joy] is in you. Any other kind of joy does not fill the heart, but only smoothes out the wrinkles on the forehead: it is fleeting. Or do you think he who laughs rejoices? No, it is the soul that must take wing and confidently rise above everything. Trust me, true joy is harsh.

Pleasure is a feeling that arises whenever our consciousness receives information about the satisfaction of a need determined by a biological program or social stereotypes." It is important that pleasure always comes to us from something external. And in modern society, almost any pleasure can be bought for money.

Hello everyone, this is the first time I’m writing a thread on this social network, here I’ll try to broadcast for you a little peace and quiet for mental balance, because many of our worries today exist only in our heads and with our attitude towards them we can change beyond recognition.
