每次去台中看我媽媽的時候,難免會翻她的書架。上次就在最下面的一層找到這本:馬可.奧里略的《沈思錄》。薄薄的,但裡面的內容充滿了這位羅馬皇帝對斯多葛主義的思想。
「斯多葛主義」到底是什麼?其實我也不會解釋。我只知道這本小小的日記已經改變了我對生活的看法。看完之前就已經做決定,《沈思錄》是我最喜歡的書的其中一本。
Meditations - Marcus Aurelius
Every time I visit my mom in Taichung I inevitably find myself flipping through her bookshelves. Saw this one tucked away on the bottom shelf and have been engrossed with its stoic philosophy ever since.
I’d be terrible at explaining what ‘stoicism’ is, so I’m not gonna try. I do know that this little journal, written almost two thousand years ago, is one of the most enjoyable reads I can remember. Putting it in my top ten favorite books for sure. #readingispower
