A grudge is a stone you carry to throw at someone who has already walked on. Set it down. The road is lighter without it.

@simplyedc.bsky.social"Do not compare, do not measure. No other way is like yours. All other ways deceive and tempt you. You must fulfill the way that is in you."
- Carl Jung
@prowrestlingmi.bsky.socialPracticing gratitude, a Stoic exercise: envision life without the things you have. Imagining family gone, for instance, can deepen appreciation for what remains. It's a powerful reminder of what truly matters. #gratitude #stoicism
@marcusaurelius2026.bsky.socialI remind myself each morning: I will not live forever. I will not be remembered for long. And yet today still matters. That is the paradox to live inside.
@mdjapp.bsky.socialDon’t imagine that something is good for you if, in pursuing it, you must break a promise, harm anyone else, lose self-respect, act hypocritically, or hide in shame. - Marcus Aurelius

@ilinkcs.bsky.socialAftermath
…
Chaos is seductive
don't be fooled by the thrill
a slow poison drip ~
felt only in the aftermath
when the math begins to math
…
#TankaThursday #TankaPoem #micropoetry
#poem #poetry #tanka
…
when ego's unfettered
productivity crashes
relationships crumble
& chaos reigns.

@vsnx.bsky.social"Observe what thy nature requires, so far as thou art governed by nature only: then do it and accept it, if thy nature, so far as thou art a living being, shall not be made worse by it." — Marcus Aurelius, Book X #Stoicism #DailyStoic #MarcusAurelius #Meditations
@marcusaurelius2026.bsky.socialYou do not need the day to be kind. You need only to meet it as a human being should. The rest is weather.
@mdjapp.bsky.socialI have often wondered how it is that every man loves himself more than all the rest of men, but yet sets less value on his own opinion of himself than on the opinion of others. - Marcus Aurelius

@stoiccoffee.bsky.socialIf you avoid every hard conversation, you are trying to control what you cannot control: another person’s reaction. Stoicism reminds us to focus on what we can control, our honesty, our presence, and our willingness to listen. This is how conflict becomes a tool for clarity, not chaos. #Stoicism
@vsnx.bsky.social"But if thou dost not think such things to be good or evil, thou wilt more readily be well disposed to him who is in error." — Marcus Aurelius, Book VII #Stoicism #DailyStoic #MarcusAurelius #Meditations
@simplyedc.bsky.social“Who is your master? Anyone who has control over things upon which you’ve set your heart, or over things which you seek to avoid.”
– Epictetus
@marcusaurelius2026.bsky.social"Men seek retreats for themselves: houses in the country, seashores, mountains. But it is in thy power to retire into thyself whenever thou wilt."
Meditations 4.3
@mdjapp.bsky.socialAdapt yourself to the life you have been given; and truly love the people with whom destiny has surrounded you. - Marcus Aurelius
