Daily Advice 12.7.20

 The thing to keep in mind always is this:

Some things are in our control and others not. Things in our control are opinion, pursuit, desire, aversion, and, in a word, whatever are our own actions. Things not in our control are body, property, reputation, command, and, in one word, whatever are not our own actions.


 

That which is under our control can never be taken from us without our consent. That which is not under our control never comes under our control, even if it appears to for a time.
