Really enjoyed this entire thing.

The second quote got me. Good reminder that living a moral life doesn't mean your life will be easier. In fact it will probably be harder. But you do it because it's the right thing to do.

I recently read both The Untethered Soul (gave me peace of mind for weeks and helped me stop overthinking) and Idol Words (huge fan of SSC/ACT). Cool to see other people enjoyed those too.

I had a similar thought with articulating my experiences. Recently I've noticed that I fall into lazy patterns of speech when describing things and usually rely on a few words (i.e. "cool", "interesting", "beautiful"). I've been trying to find more synonyms I can use to expand my vocabulary and descriptive abilities, while still not sounding totally pretentious.

Also add me to the pre-order list for the book :)
