MyStoic: Daily Stoicism

A few minutes with the Stoics, three times a day. MyStoic gives you a reading every morning, midday and night from Marcus Aurelius, Seneca and Epictetus. Each passage is word for word from a classic public-domain translation, followed by a short summary in plain modern English and a question to answer in your journal.
