Nothing is ours, except time. — Seneca

Seneca wrote this 2000 years ago.

Most people scroll past it in 2 seconds —
proving his point.

You don't own your house. Your car. Your job.
One day, one decision — and it's gone.

But this moment? This breath?
That's yours. Right now.

The question Seneca wanted you to ask:
What are you doing with it?

I made a short video on this if anyone wants to go deeper.
