I want to introduce you to my friend Marcus who hangs out by my side, and guides me through the daily vagaries of fortune using his wisdom as a compass of sorts. He is a ferocious lion that can rip and shred people to pieces with but a swish of his mighty claws, but when I am around, he exudes a wonderfully calm presence. He wanders around the world with me, and teaches me the tenets of stoicism and other philosophies. Legend has it that he is an incarnation of the famed Roman philosopher emperor Marcus Aurelius. He is technologically rather advanced for a wild beast, and maintains an instagram account of his activities.
P.S: I created this as something fun to do with my kids, and gently introduce them to some stoic principles. :)
