This is another one of my Mississippi Street Fair pics, you can see the artist in the right corner! I love Marcus Aurelius, the philosopher king (actually Emperor). He is a stoic, and his work is mostly about the philosophy of service and duty, describing how to find and preserve equanimity in the midst of conflict by following nature as a source of guidance and inspiration.

Lee always says I would be the worst spy in the world, because my face always gives me away. He is also not the first person to comment on it. I work on it though, I do (the stoicism and equanimity, not the spy part).
