Make yourself happy through your own efforts!

 Make yourself happy through your own efforts!

Seneca

Letters from a Stoic


Thoreau said this -

The highest of arts - is to elevate the quality of the day through a conscious endeavor


I feel this on certain days - 

I wake groggy-eyed , due to lack of sleep

But then I talk a walk or a Jog first thing

Or do morning yoga session - asanas and pranayama


Post that I feel energized 

I feel elevated and it lingers through the day

Indeed it is the highest of arts - to lift ourself up

For none will do it for you

I need to fill myself the “psychic” gasoline

Cannot travel on borrowed gas for long!
