Delphic Maxim of the Week: Live together meekly (Ὁμίλει πρᾴως)

“Living in community with others is the greatest gift. For what good is all the wealth of the world, when you are alone? If you are able to share, you will find a community, and your life will have meaning far beyond just enriching yourself. That does not necessarily need to be meek, but it puts the emphasize that we should create a togetherness first and foremost, since we humans are "social animals." Woe to the arrogant loner, who thinks only of himself, for he who lives only for himself will always be poor, despite all the riches of the world, while those who have one another are rich, may they even live meekly.”
