STOICISM.DESIGN Back Roads of Your Self May 30, 2019 This morning I want to to share this concept I like: "the back roads of your self." For context, here's the quote from Marcus Aurelius. "People try to get away from it all - to the country, to the beach, to the mountains. You always wish that you could too. ... you can get away from it anytime you like by going within. ... Are you complaining about the things the world assigns you? ... Or is it your reputation that's bothering you? But look at how soon we're all forgotten. The abyss of endless time that swallows it all. ... So keep this refuge in mind: the back roads of your self. Above all, no strain and no stress. Be straightforward. Look at things like ... a human being, like a citizen, like a mortal."
