Brittany, it was Jiddu Krishnamurti who said "truth is a pathless land." Additionally, Truth is a land many don't venture in to as you have in your studies. Just a novice in Stoic wisdom, I am still able to extract enough wisdom to direct my more entitled side to make as needed adjustments some of the time. I support, and I commend your work here. Thank you again.

Thank you, Jim! I really appreciate your support and I'm glad my work has contributed to your Stoic explorations. It's certainly a fascinating terrain, one I'm still exploring myself, so I'm happy to have you as a fellow-traveler!

You are very welcome. I admire your curious self, and your passion to jump start this discussion here on Substack. With interest in Buddhist teachings as well, my means of navigating these turbulent times are served well with my scant bit of exposure to Stoic scholars. However, I did grow up in Tampa on Seneca Street. Maybe I got my start long ago when I wondered about that beautiful name. I remember, I liked saying it. Stay well Brittany!
