I read,i see,i remember,i dream and i no speak

from last month till now ,i read again and again the ΕΓΧΕΙΡΙΔΙΟΝ(hand book) of Epictetus. an early christian years but rooted to the ancient greek thought philosopher.A great book with small thoughts and in short texts but full of bitter wisdom.
i share a couple of them:
α) It is the action of an uninstructed person to reproach others for his own misfortune; of one entering instruction, to reproach himself; and one perfectly instructed, to reproach neither others nor himself.
β)There is only one way to happiness and that is to cease worrying about things which are beyond the power of our will.

Epictetus (55 AD - 135 AD), Enchiridion

Athens & fullmoon & dusklight & me staring..

A lot of moaning about Athens ,a lot of saying about bad air pollution and how tha city has changed to the worst and how the living gets every year harder... etc.
Despite all these , Athens is my city ,here is my birth place ,here are some of my best friends and here is my nest where i come
and i find streets i know , road corners i v been walking and some faces from my past.
Yesterday ,fullmoon, thought : how nice is still my city,even not perfect even worst from some points ,but how happy makes me to stare to the ugly buidings ,to Ymittos mountain to this massive urban scene and the moon to come to torch my silence .
It became easier to moan about Athens than to enjoy what gives us...and by the end of the day i cant refuse my place ,its easier to accept and look straight and enjoy..
