pickMeditations is a classical collection of writings by Marcus Aerelius, former emperor of the Roman Empire. Marcus‘ Meditations are commonly entwined to Stoicism, an ancient philosophy, and would be placed in the self-help section of any library. As I read further into the book, I increasingly find Marcus‘ reflections relevant to modern day life, although having lived nearly 2000 years ago.

I just got this book from my library. It surprised me very much. I thought it would be a tiny book, much like two other books by this author which I recently read. Not only is it a longer book, but it seems to be a bit more difficult to understand. I‘m not really sure about this. I found the Preface a bit challenging, but I‘m going to give it my best try.
I kinda love his take.
I spent a delightful hour absorbed into this book on Sunday afternoon.
You see, #hyggehourreadathon doesn't work for me at 8 pm as that's when I'm shuffling off to bed and can't concentrate anymore.
But I can sit and dip into a small book on the weekend that's a quick read.
This was good but ultimately, forgettable. I read this one because my word of the year is stillness. Decent intro but still looking for more on this topic.
so-so
