A Guide to the Good Life

Since I have totally forgotten who recommended this book (subtitle The Ancient Art of Stoic Joy) I thought I'd post my thanks here for them.

In this time, when everything just feels so fractured and stressful, it has been an absolute joy to pick up that book every morning and read a chapter. It calms me, centers me, and makes me smile even though everything around seems to be going kerblooey.

I first heard about it on Mr Money Mustache's suggested reading list. It really kind of reframes a way of looking at things.

Yes, I found it enlightening as well. Refreshing, after all the "positive thinking" stuff that's thrown at us.

I just ordered it from the library. Sounds interesting.
