Wise counsel, indeed, Awais! Much of what you advise dovetails nicely with classical Stoicism, and I was glad to see your quote from the estimable philosopher-emperor, Marcus Aurelius. I highly recommend reading his famous Meditations, especially in the new translation by David and Scott Hicks.

Thank you. When I was young words wisdom would unfortunately go in one ear and out the other, but as life goes on they are refreshed with new meaning. The quote by Schopenhauer is a treasure, an example the West coming close to Buddhist compassion! Thanks for unearthing it an sharing it!
