He is a wise man who does not grieve for the things which he has not, but rejoices for those which he has.” ~ Epictetus
Something I always love quoting is the Stoics because I always feel as if they've cracked the code for life. Ideally, we grieve the things we do not have because we are constantly wondering what it would be like to have them. If we focus on the things we have at present, we will discover that there is a lot of gratitude to be given because we understand that we were once grieving this, but now we have it. We should always rejoice rather than grieve because this allows us to save our joy and find contentment.
