Relationships......................



26.  A man's true delight is to do the things he was made for.  He was made to show goodwill to his kind, to rise above the promptings of his senses, to distinguish appearances from realities, and to pursue the study of universal Nature and her works.


27.  We have three relationships:  one to this bodily shell which envelops us, one to the divine Cause which is the source of everything in all things, and one to our fellow-mortals around us.


-Marcus Aurelius,  Meditations,  Book VIII
