“If a man knows not which port he sails, no wind is favorable.” - Seneca

In This Episode, We Get Stoic About:

As first responders, we all like to think that we are rooted in principles of integrity, honesty, and compassion, guiding us to act with kindness and empathy towards others. But like the sailor in Seneca’s quip, without a clear destination or purpose, we can easily become adrift, tossed about by the currents of circumstance and chance. And just as a ship requires a destination to steer towards, so too do we need a sense of purpose and direction to guide our actions and decisions.
