Stoicism was something I stumbled upon whilst in college...I still remember writing a poem/essay on the same named 'A stoic's doggerel' for some writing competition in college. I am not sure if you have read Robert Pirsig. Zen and the Art of Motorcycle maintenance was one book which changed the way I looked at life back then, also the lyrics of Dylan, Black Sabbath, Ozzy Osbourne, Jim Morrison, Metallica....all were very influential song writers. Its always good to journal and also to share your thoughts. Its all about the thoughts Rohan, for thoughts over a period of time become action, which over a period of time becomes behavior, and behavior over a period of time becomes your character! So its nice to know your thinking - God Bless you and a Happy New Year 2021!
Thank you - happy New Year to you too! I actually just got Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance so looking forward to reading that. Seems like we also have the same taste in music as well as books - love Bob Dylan and Jim Morrison!
Happy New Year Rohan, and thanks for your wishes!! :) As usual, it was a really good read, and I especially loved the part where you recommended a few books to us. Being a bookworm myself, I'll try reading a few of them. Happy New Year once again!
