There’s nothing Real to be gained by studying anything human. Maybe that’s why I never take the Stoics seriously. Much of what they say is about being a better human. But if you’re still wholly human when you die, have you failed?

No we have not failed, but it could be better. As long as we cling to our humanity we cannot fully realize what lies beyond it.

I should add, I have the impression all humans are in this process anyway, ready or willing or not! I was told there are no failures but I have no experience of that from my personal experiences so far …
