Sunday night Stoic: Town mouse

May 30, 2016 Eric Johnson

Meditations 11.22:

“The town mouse and the country mouse. Distress and agitation of the town mouse.”

I spent the day with my family touring parts of Los Angeles. It was a town mouse kind of day. Delightful, touristy fun. But definitely a town mouse kind of town.
