Are you still “wandering around in all directions”?

Are you still one of those who are “wandering around in all directions, roaming here and there, looking for a path in life, competing in their natural gifts, striving for honors, seeking with all their effort night and day to rise to the top, to win great power”?

Or have you started noticing “nature barking out her one demand, that pain be kept away, divorced from body, so that, free from care, free from fear, she may derive enjoyment in her mind from a sense of pleasure?”

Lucretius: On the Nature of of Things, Translated by Ian Johnston, 2010, Book II, lines 8-19 and 23-27

  "… As you say of yourself, I TOO AM AN EPICUREAN. I consider the genuine (not the imputed) doctrines of Epicurus as containing everything rational in moral philosophy which Greece and Rome have left us."
