Publisher's Synopsis
These Six parables are not based in religion, instead, they are based on stoicism philosophy.
What is Stoicism? It is a philosophy of personal ethics informed by its system of logic and its views on the natural world...
Many Stoics-such as Seneca and Epictetus-emphasized that because "virtue is sufficient for happiness", a sage would be emotionally resilient to misfortune.
Want to know more about stoicism, you can read appendix B in this book.
In this book, you can pick and choose which parable to read.
There are three abstract parables and three-story style parables. Each with a deeper meaning, or just enjoy the stories.
Back content
Six parables each one with a deeper meaning. Every time you reread them you may find something new about not just the parable, but yourself. Why should the donkey be the ass end of all the jokes in the world? Maybe the jackass has earned his title, or maybe there are more things we need to learn about the donkey.
