Do Your Job

July 1st, 2021

Whatever anyone does or says, for my part I'm bound to the good. In the same way an emerald or gold or purple might always proclaim: ‘whatever anyone does or says, I must be what I am and show my true colors.‘

- Marcus Aurelius in Meditations, 7.15

Everything and everyone has a purpose. Good and evil. Friend and foe. Hardworking and slothful. We all have a duty.

To be a Stoic, we should desire to be good. We need to be wise.

Conclusion

Our job today is easy. We need to stay steady and be good no matter the circumstances.
