DAY 36
Letters from a Stoic
Epistulae Morales ad Lucilium
📌 ONE QUESTION FROM THE BOOK
Did I live today fully, as if it were the last day of my life?
📝ONGO's Reflection
Reading these letters Seneca sent to his friend Lucilius, I fall into the illusion that a philosopher from two thousand years ago is sitting beside me, offering kind advice. He drives home the truth that time is the only asset we truly own, and that a life forever postponed until tomorrow is no different from being dragged toward death. Discussing how fleeting wealth and honor are, and teaching how to guard one's inner calm, this collection of letters becomes a firm anchor that keeps me steady in a loud and chaotic world.
