 To ponder: 
“Nietzsche rejected Stoicism because he saw its emphasis on tranquility and control over emotions as a denial of life's dynamic and passionate aspects. He believed in embracing life's struggles and passions, not retreating into calm detachment.”

 Nietzsche is favourite of mine. I have read most of his books and do agree with much of his philosophy. Taking from different philosophical ideas and creating your own personal perspective is my path. I do not adhere to any one in  particular.   💕 & 🕊️ 
 Same here, although I tend to think Nietzsche tried to factor in human nature in his philosophy, and not try to change or subdue it.
