Daily Stoic: December's all about mortality (yuck)

December's meditations are all about all about Mortality. I am thinking it is because we are at the end of the year, and I did not start my meditations until November. Ah well, it starts over next month. But for today, the meditation is a pretty universal precept.

Let us prepare our minds as if we'd come to the very end of life. Let us postpone nothing. Let us balance life's books each day. The one who puts the finishing touches on their life ever day is never short of time.

Seneca

I don't need to show examples of this. It is pervasive in the recommendations on life every day by the religious, the spiritual and the non-believers.

And movies. Regardé vous - Ferris Bueller.
