Daily Stoic: Watching the Wise

Take a good look at people's ruling principles, especially of the wise, whaat they run away from and what they seek out.

Marcus Aurelius

This meditation seems fairly obvious to me. Often we find someone that we admire then try to mimic what we admire about them. 

I did this when I signed up and helped with Project 1948. Ed did this when he became a board member for a non-profit housing group. Lynn set a great example for others by volunteering at a food back after the hurricane.

I admire many things about my friends. I think it is hard to find and keep a great friend if there is nothing you admire about them.

I’m in Steamboat Springs - most posting begins on Sunday

 However, I had to post this. Everything is kind of poopy now (see no curse words). So I take humor were I can.
