Suicide..

[Reykhel]

Suicide....the Stoics say that you should consider it and leave it as an option....like a door in the far corner of your mind...

When things get really bad.....consider it....the door...it's there.....it's an option.....

the "problem" doesn't seem so important or bad now.....

I guess I won't choose the door.....what was the "problem" again.? lets find a solution.....

You alright pal?

Me? Yes perfectly fine, thank you.

I'm talking about a mindset. It's a stoic "trick" if you will....

Everything is relative......if one leaves the option of suicide there, your "problem" in life seems so small in comparison.....


....why not go back to confronting the so called "problem" with your new mindset...

Stoic discussion, not low culture rubbish.

Thanks anyway.

I'm a big fan of stoicism, but I've never read anything like that from them. It's mostly about being unattached to anything. Who said that? Epicurus?

Either way, it's true.

Acceptance of death made me think of Epicurus.

One of my favorite stoic quotes:

All you need are these: certainty of judgment in the present moment; action for the common good in the present moment; and an attitude of gratitude in the present moment for anything that comes your way.

—MARCUS AURELIUS, MEDITATIONS

You know, your response doesn't need me to say anything or add anything to ruin it. It's perfect as it is....

But forgive me, I will....

The quote is so fitting......tonight I spoke with somebody about a previous "conflict" that I had.....(a person who was an energy source of financial gain..........let's just say I "temporarily lost" something and I "reacted" in anger.....let's just say that I thought that the "loss" was going to be substantial and have a long term effect.....

....,this person has, some time later created an opportunity for me that has more than (4 times) made up for the "previous loss"....

....however, I just accepted it and didn't acknowledge it...I've gained...but...

I realised I was quick to lash out.....but I've been slow to show my hand in appreciation and gratitude.....

@Reykhel Check out The Daily Stoic. There's a daily quote with a follow up from the author (who is Robert Greene's protege). I'm finishing it up this month. Great book.

Some would say that clinging to life, because of a fear of death, is mentally weak.

The quote for today is fvcking perfect for this thread.

“Let us prepare our minds as if we’d come to the very end of life. Let us postpone nothing. Let us balance life’s books each day. . . . The one who puts the finishing touches on their life each day is never short of time.” —SENECA, MORAL LETTERS, 101.7b–8a
