A poetic invocation to summon detachment, gallows humor, and planetary-scale perspective.
Recite as needed during ego flares, meetings with imbeciles, or unexpected entanglements.
Original Aurelius:
“Say to yourself in the early morning: I shall meet today inquisitive, ungrateful, violent, treacherous, envious, uncharitable men… But I have seen the nature of the good, and it is beautiful, and of the bad, and it is base…”
Shangle:
“Most of the people you’ll meet are deeply wound in their own s--t. Fortunately or not, we’re all people, same brain, same being. So consider giving them a break, and change your own diaper.”
Loud fools everywhere.
No one knows what they’re doing.
Control what you can.
Guy cuts you off? Great.
