Written: October 28, 2023 _________________________________________ Among the living is where perfection is found. Stoicism is a path of life that acts as dull ground. The advice is to focus on the bright side of life. Dispel the negativity, and let vanish all strife. Inciting people to enhance their morality To foster resilience in the face of adversity. Strengthening your resolve and impediment Beat iconoclastic wits for a fine pediment. Grasp of the overarching rationality Sustaining integrity even amid adversity The Stoic Path is a philosophy of such depth. With wisdom and tranquility in your breadth Life taught us to persist in the face of hardship. To sustain balance while still preserving worship. Maintain calmness under challenging conditions. Surmount your inhibitions and avoid suspicion. And to welcome fulfillment with dignity. Handle highs and lows with stoic sympathy. Stoicism, truly, provides solace and calm. A way of living that allows us to fully qualm. How? By concentrating on our inner proclivity. And shedding our bonds is an act of loyalty. We are liberated from the bonds of conflict. And accept a promising, significant life profit. The Stoic Way is a philosophy with lofty stature. steers our deeds into an improved, sound future. Integrity and prudence in the face of misfortune To mold ourselves and have a vital life and fortune.

dearest Sotto--I somehow missed reading this poem on the day it was posted. I'm glad I found it. Your poetic summation of stoicism is a masterpiece right down to the flawless rhyme scheme. I must say I admire stoicism especially now that I'm older and, hopefully, wiser. Many of the tenets were part of my upbringing. Most of my family didn't subscribe to a specific religion, but valued and instilled the principles reflected in your poem. I'm faving this one, for it resonates with me. Sara

Dear Sotto, Whether you believe or not, I am bold to declare, stoicism is my motto of life. Central axis of my life is stoicism. Don’t know to what extent I could express myself on this topic with my limited vocabulary, but I am eager to try. Have Great Days. Blessings.
