"I wanna hear you laugh like you really mean it."



"If you are distressed by anything external, the pain is not due to the thing itself, but to your estimate of it; and this you have the power to revoke at any moment."
-Marcus Aurelius

You know I'm reading Marcus Aurelius right now. I love that stoic stuff.
