Meditations XL

From Marcus Aurelius' "Meditations":


“True happiness doth consist in very few things.”

It seems to me that there are a couple ways to read this: 1) true happiness consists in only a few things, but he neglects to tell us what those things are; or 2) true happiness consists in investing oneself in few things.

Overall, the message seems to be about downsizing and simplicity, which seems solid to me.
