Deep dives
Treat Unenlightened Souls with Sympathy
Epictetus reminds us to treat unenlightened people with sympathy and understanding, rather than condescension. Being patient and compassionate towards those who are ignorant or mistaken is a fundamental principle of Stoicism. We should be mindful that everyone goes through their own journey of enlightenment, and no one is born with all the knowledge. By practicing patience and being a good example, we create an environment where growth and understanding can flourish.
