Death is nothing to fear

"Remember that it is not only the things themselves that trouble us, but also our judgments about those things. For example, death is nothing to fear, for when we cease to exist, we no longer have the capacity to feel pain or sorrow. However, it is our fear and anxiety about death that causes us suffering. Therefore, it is within our power to control our reactions and choose not to be disturbed by these external occurrences. By recognizing that our judgments and attitudes shape our experience of the world, we can cultivate a sense of tranquility and live in accordance with reason." - Marcus Aurelius. Hosted on Acast.
