Seven links to worthwhile thin(g/k)s
Hello dear reader!
Here are seven links to bits of the world I have been exploring this week, shared with the hope that you will find them to be an inspiring springboard for deeper thinking.
Youtube book review: Marcus Aurelius + Meditations + Stoicism.
Attention and tenderness share roots. A visual snippet:
“Through my private cerebral drizzle—the continuous, joy-canceling brain-rain that was my mental reality at the time—I noted it: energy, life, jiggling molecules, the world. A message from the fire of generosity at the heart of the universe. And the message was this: One day, you’ll be able to simply appreciate what’s in front of you. The tea, the café, London, the little lens of warmth on the table. One day, this will be enough.”
“For four hours I forget all my worries and boredom, I am afraid neither of poverty nor death.”
Three videos I enjoyed:
Book I’m exploring: A Swim in the Pond in the Rain, In Which Four Russians Give a Master Class on Writing, Reading, and Life.
Until next week!
Warmly,
Ani
