Senecas' Port

Senecas' Port

I have been reading Mediations by Emp Marcus Aurelius, and relearning the teachings of Stoicism and I always come across a quote or a thought by the great stoics that really resonate with me, especially on whatever I may be doing or going through at that time. Yesterday I came across this one by Seneca:

“If a man knows not to which port he sails, no wind is favorable.”

This is so true, if we have set no goals, or no focus or direction in life, any wind that blows is going to get us nowhere, because we how will we know we got there if we did not know where we were going?

Sometimes we are called to do something and we don't know where it will lead us, this is true. However, I think in life we need some sort of direction, of a goal, a final destination. 

Thoughts?

Enjoy
