The wise man preserves a smooth-tempered self-control.
[πρὸς σοφοῦ γὰρ ἀνδρὸς ἀσκεῖν σώφρον᾽ εὐοργησίαν.]

Frazzled after reading some angry posts on social media today. Sometimes it's just not worth getting into it, but it's hard. I am a recovering people-pleaser!
How brilliant is this tune though? Found it on Tiktok by the amazing @hicorook and I'm excited to see that it's going to be released tomorrow! 😍

What a wonderful passage by our friend Mr #Pepys. He fears he was too unrestrained with the priest, and his admission of that fear is covered by layer upon layer of #hesitation and grammatical #SelfRestraint.
- it comes to my mind ...
- to observe ...
- that I sense ...
- to have been a little ...
... too free. Finally it has come out: "I have been too free."
In the construction "I observe ... that I sense", #introspection becomes sentence structure, #diary becomes #style.
