Brevedad de la Vida, La [Spanish]

By Lucio Anneo Séneca

In On the Shortness of Life, Seneca (4 BC - 65 AD) touches on a surprising topic: the feeling of loss of time. We have the false perception that life is short because it is determined by our way of living, full of vices and superfluous occupations. Dedication to wisdom is, for Seneca, the only way to live profitably. Through his concise pen and sharp phrases, the classic philosopher crosses the centuries with timeless wisdom and invites us to reevaluate the use we make of time, this very scarce commodity, as well as to question our lifestyle marked by busyness, dispersion and vanity. "There is no reason for you to think that he who shows gray hair and wrinkles has lived long: he has not lived long, but rather he has existed long."
