Meditations is a classic work. Everyone should read it, it is a very special thing to read, knowing it was written by a Roman Emperor filled with humility and humanity. The age of philosopher kings. To think, he, lord of the world at the time, had to face the depredations of fools, and spiteful disrespect, despite being a temperate man of honour. Puts your own suffering into context insomuch as there are no circumstances where you will avoid it. You must handle it.
