Follow along with my personal daily stoic journal, unfiltered, unedited (except for some spelling mistakes).

Morning Reflection:

I am kind, I do no harm to others, except myself at times. I try to be mindful of other people's feelings. I try to make a positive impact and impression on those around me and my environment. Could I do more? Sure, but there's a lot of things I'm working on. So, I'm relatively confident in saying I'm a just in person in my own way. I hope others observe the same, despite being alone.

Evening Reflection:

How else can one define a just life? Other than what I wrote about this morning. It's difficult, isn't? To exactly define what a just life is. So, why not keep it simple? Love others, forgive, do no harm, and stay present in the now. Be a good person. Is that an exact definition? No, but it's worth embodying this, you could do way worse.

Title prompts are taken from The Daily Stoic Journal by Ryan Holiday and Stephen Hanselman.
