8. JanuaryWith every walk with nature one receives far more than one seeks. And the great spectacle never ends: somewhere, every hour, the sun is rising; somewhere else a morning is always breaking. 9. JanuaryThe joy of a human being: to do what is human. 26. MarchWhoever binds a joy to himself destroys the winged life. But whoever kisses joy in flight lives in the sunrise of eternity. 6. MayThe salvation of life: to see each thing whole, for what it is — and with one's whole soul to do what is just and speak the truth. What then remains but to enjoy life by joining good to good — so that not even the smallest gap is left between? 27. MayYou never enjoy the world aright until the sea itself flows in your veins and you wear the sky like a garment. 4. JulyWhat we seek is this: that the soul should always move at an even pace, in good order, content with itself, loving its own condition and not interrupting this joy — a quiet evenness. The Greeks call it Euthymia. I call it tranquillity. 21. JulyWill you keep on roaming ever farther? See, the good lies so near. Only learn to seize happiness, for happiness is always there. 2. SeptemberIf anyone can show me that I think or act wrongly, I will gladly change. For I seek the truth — it has never harmed anyone. The one who is harmed is he who persists in his error and his ignorance.
