    Happy Twentieth to all

    I wrote a blog for today following up on "Back to the Basics" (Letter to Menoeceus), where I ask: But what if we were to focus on having “the sweetest enjoyment of luxury” from time to time, rather than on being “contented with little if we have not much”?

    Happy Twentieth!

    "It is not the pretended but the real pursuit of philosophy that is needed; for we do not need the appearance of good health but to enjoy it in truth."
