was an ancient Greek philosopher. His words timeless. “You don’t develop courage by being happy in your relationships everyday. You develop it by surviving difficult times and challenging adversity.”
“It is not so much our friends’ help that helps us, as the confidence of their help.”
“Not what we have But what we enjoy, constitutes our abundance.”
“I have never wished to cater to the crowd; for what I know they do not approve, and what approve I do not know.”
……..and a favorite , but not sure which of the Greek philosophers to credit. “Happiness==friends, free thought, and knowing yourself.”
Words of wisdom to enjoy and perhaps live by.
mother nature is a man and other observations..
