Today's Meditation(s):

Thoughts:

I read lots of, well, while not usually categorized as holy they're at least generally seen as wise. Lots of philosophy, bits of religious books and commentaries, Tolstoy's collection of epigrams, etc.

If all I do is read them however, never stopping to really consider them and examine how they might help me live a better life, then I might as well put the tomes away and focus on something more appropriate like Mad Libs or anonymous erotic 'novels'. Maybe throw myself into some fandom or other and let that become my personality.

The whole point of philosophy is to create the best life I can.
