I will not be distracted from being the idiot
Do not make fun of my shiny red nose
You are all the clowns in my theatre
The unreasonable man in my shows

Written around the George Bernard Shaw quote, “The reasonable man adapts himself to the world; the unreasonable one persists in trying to adapt the world to himself. Therefore, all progress depends on the unreasonable man.”

Today’s Daily Stoic poem:

Protecting Our Inner Fortress From Fear

When you’ve made your fortress strong
The outside cannot touch your soul
Worries and doubt will come along
And fear is always looking for a hole
