Rebirth

Marcus Aurelius, Meditations 7.2.2 (tr. C.R. Haines):
Thou canst begin a new life! See but things afresh as thou usedst to see them; for in this consists the new life.

ἀναβιῶναι σοι ἔξεστιν· ἴδε πάλιν τὰ πράγματα, ὡς ἑώρας· ἐν τούτῳ γὰρ τὸ ἀναβιῶναι.
In Gregory Hays' translation:
You can return to life. Look at things as you did before. And life returns.
