492. What doesn’t matter 

Aurelius constantly reminded himself that well-known people before him were quickly forgotten a few years later 

No matter how much he did, how much he gave, it’d be like a sandcastle that gets blown away with the wind

Alexander the Great, was buried in the same ground as his mule driver 

All of our shit stinks. 

Eventually, we’ll pass away and slowly be forgotten 

We could enjoy this brief time here, or be a slave to our emotions that make us miserable, angry, etc. 

After all, we can choose.
