231113 What I learned in my studies this morning 3

Re-reading, re-read.
Re-meditating on the
Important lessons.

Today's Meditation(s):

This is why I reread my books.

Every day, I read three different translations of (and selections from) Tolstoy's A Calendar of Wisdom. Usually, I grab a few dicta and post them here with my thoughts.

These three quotes, unselected in previous years, mesh so well with my current understanding that I marvel at not having used them already.

In the time since a year ago today, and a year before that, I've grown and changed. Now, I have the tools to appreciate what they are saying. Now I get it.
