Episode 5: On The Shortness Of Life

Description: I explore Seneca's letter 'On the Shortness of Life' offering commentary on themes such as gratitude, humility, purpose, desire, setting goals, friendship, moderation and change. This video was an old recording from my YouTube channel. I re-uploaded here with remastered audio quality. I explore the philosophical tradition of Stoicism with goals to inform, empower, and help others benefit from the practical wisdom of Ancient Greek, Roman, and modern thinkers. I tackle many topics including handling adversity, finding meaning in life, working toward contentment, dealing with change, anger, and gratitude.
