Great article. I have been attempting to be a stoic for some time. I carry a memento mori coin in my wallet. I showed and explained the coin once to a man, he acted almost fearful, said nothing and handed the coin back. I haven't read everything in Meditations and stoicism is hard sometimes to follow and be true to.

why? We weren't having a casual conversation. Pertinent to the conversation and in response I explained and gave him enough background.
