Some things are believed because they are true. But many things are believed simply because they have been asserted repeatedly.

Freedom and love go together. Love is not a reaction. If I love you because you love me, that is mere trade, a thing to be bought in the market; it is not love. To love is not to ask anything in return, not even to feel that you are giving something- and it is only such love that can know freedom.

The more you know yourself, the more clarity there is. Self-knowledge has no end - you don’t come to an achievement, you don’t come to a conclusion. It is an endless river.

When you wake up in the morning, tell yourself: the people I deal with today will be meddling, ungrateful, arrogant, dishonest, jealous and surly. They are like this because they can’t tell good from evil. But I have seen the beauty of good, and the ugliness of evil, and have recognized that the wrongdoer has a nature related to my own - not of the same blood and birth, but the same mind, and possessing a share of the divine. And so none of them can hurt me. No one can implicate me in ugliness. Nor can I feel angry at my relative, or hate him. We were born to work together like feet, hands and eyes, like the two rows of teeth, upper and lower. To obstruct each other is unnatural. To feel anger at someone, to turn your back on him: these are unnatural.”

I always thought getting pissed at someone is absolutely natural.
But I guess we can let it slide with Marcus since hes cool ; )

I’m been looking into stoicism and no joke it’s literally the answer to not becoming reactive and handling emotions. Omg this is like the Bible to life. I’ve tried in the past getting into it but I just couldn’t but recently my anger and irritability with people was getting bad so I started looking for solutions. I can’t believe I’m only now uncovering this way of life, it’s like the redpill of how to handle emotions amd how to deal with things you can’t control. Just amazing stuff
