Thank you, Sofia. So inspiring. I took a screen capture of the quote from Seneca. Going to be reflecting on this.

Thank you for reading Jo. I am glad you found Seneca useful - Stoic readings are being a lifeline for me right now.

Thank you for letting us in to some of this journey. It was humbling to see how you moved through, anger and sadness towards more contentment. This line, ‘better to be one of the weaker pupils lying low at the end of the Stoic classroom than never even making it to the class’ felt especially poignant.
