A new year resolution.
New Year resolution? Mine's simple. I'll start off quoting from "Night Train to Lisbon", which in turned quoted from Marcus Aurelius' "The Meditations".
"
Do wrong to thyself, do wrong to thyself, my soul; but thou wilt no longer have the opportunity of honouring thyself. Every man's life is sufficient. But thine is nearly finished, though thy soul reverences not itself but places thy felicity in the souls of others. "
And I'll end off with another quote, from the same
"T
