Day 93

“Make sure you’re not made “Emperor” avoid the imperial stain. It can happen to you,so keep yourself simple, good, pure, saintly, plain, a friend of justice, god-fearing, gracious, affectionate, and strong for your proper work. Fight to remain the person that philosophy wished to make you. Revere the gods, and look after each other. Life is short-the fruit of this life is a good character and acts for the common good. ” Marcus Aurelius, Meditations, 6.30

If only Lord Cheeto would follow Marcus’s path.
