Caleb and Michael read through Marcus Aurelius’s Meditations. Specifically: Meditations 2.6-2.10.
There are several essential themes in these passages: the importance of self-examination, maintaining focus on what matters, and the philosophical underpinnings of Stoicism. in the Meditations we get to see Marcus Aurelius rehearsing Stoic maxims – and apply that practice to our own life too.
