Happy Father’s Day

Book of the Week

The Voltaire Collection, Volume 1

By Voltaire

Voltaire—perfected the philosophical tale, a literary form embedding profound questions about existence, justice, and human nature within entertaining narratives that made complex ideas accessible while evading censorship through wit and indirection.

This collection of Voltaire’s works even includes a science fiction story, written in 1739.

Your Day

Book of the Week

Letters from a Stoic

By Seneca

This readable version of Seneca’s writings contains some worthwhile advice.

Born in 4 B.C. and sentence to death by three Roman emperors (Caligula, Claudius, and Nero–who succeeded), his thoughts are still  relevant today. 

For several years of his turbulent life, Seneca was the guiding hand of the Roman Empire.

His inspired reasoning is derived mainly from Stoic principles.

Be Happy

Generally, most people are as happy as they

want to be.

I enjoyed last week’s book by Chris Ferrie, so I thought I would read another one of his books.

I am on page 162 and enjoying the book.

An Hourglass of Aging

Joke of The Week

Physical Traits

Notice, I’m not saying age is just a number.

The only people saying that are people who haven’t hit 75. 

I have been healthy all my life, but I assure you that it is going to get a bit rough after 75.

But if you work at being healthy (It is a full time job), your quality of life will be so much better than many who are much younger than you.

Character Traits

Social Traits

That definitely is a long distance relationship.

Learning Traits

And you thought you would never use that Periodic Table stuff from your high school chemistry class.

The elements involved in the joke are:

Na: Sodium

H: Hydrogen

Br: Bromine

O: Oxygen

Miscellaneous

Alice: “Would you tell me, please, which way I ought to go from here?”

Cheshire Cat: “That depends a good deal on where you want to get to.”

Alice: “I don’t much care where—”

Cheshire Cat: “Then it doesn’t matter which way you go.”
