Narrow Path – 30th June 2026

Spotlights follow all movement
       careful of each step made
Riding high on applause
       disconsolate at any boos
Hearted or disapproved
       it's here the game is played
One wrong step strikes out
       it's the narrow path to choose

A thought inspired by the Tao De Ching

Today’s Daily Stoic poem:

The Obstacle is the Way

Someone may impede our actions
But they can’t impede intentions
Obstacles become satisfactions
To practice a form of excellence
