True Wealth Lies in Giving (published in 2021)

After reading one of my favorite newsletters (shoutout to the Daily Stoic), I felt inspired to write this, somewhere between a response and an opinion. Not only that, but this topic has real potential, so I felt obligated to spread the word even more.

In his memoir Meditations, Marcus Aurelius stresses the value of possessing a good character. Just read a few excerpts for yourself:

“…to feel anger at someone, to turn your back on him: these are obstructions.”

— MEDITATIONS 2.1

“Don’t waste your time worrying about other people- unless it affects the common good.” and “…to care for all human beings is part of being human.”
