Glad to have you listening with us today! I've been interested in reading the Harvard Classics, and plan to share a few stories from each volume as I go. This is Volume one, containing multiple ancient philosophies, and here we will focus on one in particular. Today I'm reading the first entry of The Meditations of Marcus Aurelius. For those unfamiliar, this is an often cited book as a strong Stoic philosophy, and while do agree, I also feel like a lot of the Meditations has been taken out of context and, ironically, not meditated upon in the way a true Stoic should. It's an interesting read even for those uninterested in Stoicism, and I hope you enjoy!

We hope you enjoy this sneak peak, and as always if you enjoy the story then we invite you to visit your local library and ask them to reserve it for you!

If you can't find it at your library, then you will want to follow my Project Gutenberg guide, so please check it out to learn more!
