The
other
reason
is
that
what
happens
to
an
individual
is
a
cause
of
well-being
in
what
directs
the
world
--
of
its
well-being
,
its
fulfillment
,
of
its
very
existence
,
even
.
Because
the
whole
is
damaged
if
you
cut
away
anything
--
anything
at
all
--
from
its
continuity
and
its
coherence
.
Not
only
its
parts
,
but
its
purposes
.
And
that
's
what
you
're
doing
when
you
complain
:
hacking
and
destroying
.

.
Not
to
feel
exasperated
,
or
defeated
,
or
despondent
because
your
days
are
n't
packed
with
wise
and
moral
actions
.
But
to
get
back
up
when
you
fail
,
to
celebrate
behaving
like
a
human
--
however
imperfectly
--
and
fully
embrace
the
pursuit
that
you
've
embarked
on
.
And
not
to
think
of
philosophy
as
your
instructor
,
but
as
the
sponge
and
egg
white
that
relieve
ophthalmia
--
as
a
soothing
ointment
,
a
warm
lotion
.
Not
showing
off
your
obedience
to
the
logos
,
but
resting
in
it
.
Remember
:
philosophy
requires
only
what
your
nature
already
demands
.
What
you
've
been
after
is
something
else
again
--
something
unnatural
.
--
But
what
could
be
preferable
?
That
's
exactly
how
pleasure
traps
us
,
is
n't
it
?
Would
n't
magnanimity
be
preferable
?
Or
freedom
?
Honesty
?
Prudence
?
Piety
?
And
is
there
anything
preferable
to
thought
itself
--
to
logic
,
to
understanding
?
Think
of
their
surefootedness
.
Their
fluent
stillness
.

Things
are
wrapped
in
such
a
veil
of
mystery
that
many
good
philosophers
have
found
it
impossible
to
make
sense
of
them
.
Even
the
Stoics
have
trouble
.
Any
assessment
we
make
is
subject
to
alteration
--
just
as
we
are
ourselves
.
Look
closely
at
them
--
how
impermanent
they
are
,
how
meaningless
.
Things
that
a
pervert
can
own
,
a
whore
,
a
thief
.
Then
look
at
the
way
the
people
around
you
behave
.
Even
the
best
of
them
are
hard
to
put
up
with
--
not
to
mention
putting
up
with
yourself
.
In
such
deep
darkness
,
such
a
sewer
--
in
the
flux
of
material
,
of
time
,
of
motion
and
things
moved
--
I
do
n't
know
what
there
is
to
value
or
to
work
for
.
Quite
the
contrary
.
We
need
to
comfort
ourselves
and
wait
for
dissolution
.
And
not
get
impatient
in
the
meantime
,
but
take
refuge
in
these
two
things
:
