Just finished the introduction. Reminds me I gotta read that Roman history book I picked out out of the $5 bin at a The Strand booth outside of Central Park! Can you tell I just love that I got that book out of a The Strand kiosk outside of Central Park? More than I actually wanna read the book? 😆 I forgot to mention in whistler how much I loved New York in that book.

Omg “this is no misfortune, but to bear it true to yourself, is good fortune.” Is this ancient Roman’s peloton instructor “you don’t have to, you get to!” On a related note, I felt like I almost threw up at the gym today. But I bore it true to myself. So is good fortune 🙂↕️

I hope I remember to read book 4 when I’m dying. It must be comforting to read. Crazy this was a popular read in the trenches in wwi >_<

What a pleasant surprise that it’s narrated by my beloved Richard Armitage! I reserved this book months ago after reading that Maria semple book that referenced stoicism. Incidentally, stoicism, also in my freshman year hum core class! Always had a mild interest but that interest has been renewed. Alright Richard sweep me away!
