Today’s Daily Stoic Meditation outlines that you cannot lose yourself.

Do not lose yourself to anything — not addiction, not time, not other people.

“It’s a disgrace in this life when the soul surrenders first while the body refuses to.”

— MARCUS AURELIUS, MEDITATIONS, 6.29

Do Not Lose Yourself

Do not lose yourself.

Your soul is incredibly precious.

Your soul is something to be valued and protected.

Not To Anything

There’s a great deal of dangers, some obvious and some hidden.

In a way everything can be seen as an obstacle — it is up to you to get active in your own rescue and make sure that you do not lose yourself.

Don’t lose yourself to any danger;

  • Not to addiction
  • Not to drugs or alcohol
  • Not to phones
  • Not to time

Take full control of your life and do not let yourself be destroyed!
