actually getting slightly bored/annoyed of the crazy analogies bill bryson kept making to show how insignificant we are in this world

he's doing this pretty often. i guess it helps put things to scale and gives me a better idea rather than just nodding at big numbers

this book is like a summary/paraphrase of the other two books i read: meditations by marcus aurelius and enchiridon by epictetus

so it feels as if im re-reading a book i've never read before. the way it's written is easier to digest, so i would recommend this over the other two if you're just looking for simple guidances/words of wisdom (you should still hold your own opinions regardless of what the book says)

this book is pretty relatable so far since i own a diary of my own. im super scared of what will happen in her later diary entries..
