When
it
allows
its
action
and
impulse
to
be
without
a
purpose
,
to
be
random
and
disconnected
:
even
the
smallest
things
ought
to
be
directed
toward
a
goal
.
But
the
goal
of
rational
beings
is
to
follow
the
rule
and
law
of
the
most
ancient
of
communities
and
states
.

.
Human
life
.
Duration
:
momentary
.
Nature
:
changeable
.
Perception
:
dim
.
Condition
of
Body
:
decaying
.
Soul
:
spinning
around
.
Fortune
:
unpredictable
.
Lasting
Fame
:
uncertain
.
Sum
Up
:
The
body
and
its
parts
are
a
river
,
the
soul
a
dream
and
mist
,
life
is
warfare
and
a
journey
far
from
home
,
lasting
reputation
is
oblivion
.
Then
what
can
guide
us
?
Only
philosophy
.
Which
means
making
sure
that
the
power
within
stays
safe
and
free
from
assault
,
superior
to
pleasure
and
pain
,
doing
nothing
randomly
or
dishonestly
and
with
imposture
,
not
dependent
on
anyone
else
's
doing
something
or
not
doing
it
.
And
making
sure
that
it
accepts
what
happens
and
what
it
is
dealt
as
coming
from
the
same
place
it
came
from
And
above
all
,
that
it
accepts
death
in
a
cheerful
spirit
,
as
nothing
but
the
dissolution
of
the
elements
from
which
each
living
thing
is
composed
.
If
it
does
n't
hurt
the
individual
elements
to
change
continually
into
one
another
,
why
are
people
afraid
of
all
of
them
changing
and
separating
?
It
's
a
natural
thing
.
And
nothing
natural
is
evil
.

.
Not
just
that
every
day
more
of
our
life
is
used
up
and
less
and
less
of
it
is
left
,
but
this
too
:
if
we
live
longer
,
can
we
be
sure
our
mind
will
still
be
up
to
understanding
the
world
--
to
the
contemplation
that
aims
at
divine
and
human
knowledge
?
If
our
mind
starts
to
wander
,
we
'll
still
go
on
breathing
,
go
on
eating
,
imagining
things
,
feeling
urges
and
so
on
.
But
getting
the
most
out
of
ourselves
,
calculating
where
our
duty
lies
,
analyzing
what
we
hear
and
see
,
deciding
whether
it
's
time
to
call
it
quits
--
all
the
things
you
need
a
healthy
mind
for
...
all
those
are
gone
.
So
we
need
to
hurry
.
Not
just
because
we
move
daily
closer
to
death
but
also
because
our
understanding
--
our
grasp
of
the
world
--
may
be
gone
before
we
get
there
.
