Chapter 5: Of A Happy Life

I read books of philosophy that helped save me from the streets and hopelessness.  Listen with your heart, and not your head.

Today, we read chapter 5 of, Of A Happy Life, by Seneca the Younger.


“For no one can be styled happy who is beyond the influence of truth: and consequently a happy life is unchangeable, and is founded upon a true and trustworthy discernment.”
