Those We Love

This is one of my favorite passages and words I have lived by for years. I believe Sukij also lives by these words.

Those We Love - Marcus Aurelius

"Whenever you feel the need or wish to cheer yourself, think about all of the good qualities of those who are around you - the energy of one, for instance, the modesty of another, the generosity of a third, and some other gift of a fourth. For nothing is ever so cheering as the images of the qualities shining through in the character of those who live with us...Have these images then ever before your eyes."
