We Have To Try Harder To Get There
"It’s not that our ancestors didn’t know what was right, it was that they had trouble fully getting there. In the opening pages of Meditations, Marcus Aurelius describes how the early Stoics like Thrasea, Helvidius, and Cato inspired him to believe in a 'society of equal laws, governed by equality of status and of speech, and of rules who respect the liberty of their subjects above all else.' Nothing is more important or just than that, Marcus believed. And yet he ruled a Rome that could not have been further from it in many ways."Find out more about how we need to work to live up to the promises of our forebears in today's Daily Stoic Podcast.***If you enjoyed this week’s podcast, we’d love for you to leave a review on Apple Podcasts.

This Is the Most Powerful Force on Earth
Over and over again, the Stoics remind us how weak we are compared to the force of nature and the whims of nature. Why get angry at the world, Marcus asks—quoting Euripedes—as if the world would notice? Seneca pokes fun at Claudius and his absurd delusion to immortalize himself. His impotent declaration of war against the sea and command to his soldiers to attack the waves with their swords. ***If you enjoyed this week’s podcast, we’d love for you to leave a review on Apple Podcasts.
