Time to re-read Meditations. I don’t remember any of what I read 5 years ago. On one hand it makes me sad that I’ve forgotten so much wisdom but I’m happy I get to rediscover it now.

I discovered once that humans don't usually remember that which they do not understand. As your understanding grows, so will your memory of it. It may be necessary to re-experience a thing many times before you understand it well enough to remember it.

This is much more in line with the passage quoted above. Enjoy what you have while you have it. "This alone".
