Quote by Marcus Aurelius, Roman emperor and Stoic philosopher (121–180)

The happiness of your life depends upon the quality of your thoughts.

Marcus Aurelius, Roman emperor and Stoic philosopher (121–180)

Marcus Aurelius wrote his meditations during war and plague — yet his reflections are filled with calm strength. He knew that the world is chaotic, but our internal world is ours to shape.

When your thoughts are filled with resentment, fear, or complaint, your life feels worse. When you choose thoughts that are kind, curious, and grounded, life opens up. Guard your mind like it’s your home — because it is.

Choose thoughts that build you up.
