A single shift in attention—from the weight of the world to the wonder of it—can change everything.
“Dwell on the beauty of life. Watch the stars, and see yourself running with them.” ― Marcus Aurelius
Reflection
Marcus Aurelius reminds us that beauty is not decoration—it is nourishment. When we dwell on the beauty of life, we reclaim our power to choose what fills our mind. The stars above us are more than distant fire; they are reminders that we, too, were born to shine, to move, to strive forward with purpose. Imagining ourselves running with the stars is an invitation to lift our gaze beyond today’s worries and see ourselves as part of something vast and magnificent. Beauty is strength. Wonder is fuel. When we choose awe, we choose life.
“Something to Think About:”
What beauty—large or small—can you dwell on today that makes you feel connected to something greater than yourself?
