Sinopse

Aristotle's "Nicomachean Ethics" serves as a foundational text in moral philosophy, delving into the nature of the good life and the cultivation of virtue. Written in a clear, dialectical style that intertwines argumentation with practical examples, Aristotle explores the concepts of happiness (eudaimonia) and moral character through a lens of virtue ethics. The text is not only a reflection of the philosophical milieu of Hellenistic thought but also a response to Socratic ideals, offering a systematic approach to ethical behavior that emphasizes the importance of habit and rationality in achieving moral excellence. Aristotle, one of the most influential philosophers in Western thought, wrote this seminal work as a guide for his son, Nicomachus, blending personal insight with philosophical inquiry. His extensive studies in various fields, including biology, politics, and metaphysics, inform his ethical considerations, imbuing them with a comprehensive view of human nature. This intimate correspondence captures Aristotle's intention to merge theoretical knowledge with practical application, making the work a vital resource for ethical reflection. "Nicomachean Ethics" is highly recommended for anyone interested in understanding the roots of ethical thought and the complexities of human motivation. Its relevance persists in contemporary discussions of morality, virtue, and the quest for a meaningful life, making it an essential reading for students, philosophers, and anyone seeking to navigate the intricacies of ethical living.

    What an amazing person He is. We often fail to give the Holy Spirit the credit He deserves. After helping to create the universe with God the Father, and God the Son, He was involved in the creation of mankind. The song "Caring and Sharing" sung by Chey, at the end of the message, gives the listener time to reflect on what has been said.

    "We need more writers with bite. We have lived in the flatlands too long," writes John Barnie in one of his 'observations' ('Art in the Flatlands'). And bite he delivers.
    
    Ranging across politics, history, culture, ecological disaster, the meaning of truth, poetry, what we mean by identity and more… Barnie shares a window onto the world that is both erudite and particular. Leaning towards pessimism in a darkening world, these observations are often provocative, not from any bullish desire to antagonise, but as the result of mining a rationalist line of thought with an honesty and consistency that is applied as much to the author as to his subjects. There is a clarity here that some may find uncomfortable, but the aim is always dialogue above agreement; intellectual engagement above cheap solutions and sentimentality.
    
    Barnie asks us to think, consider and dig deeper, but most of all he asks that we "…live richly among our secondary self-created meanings, while recognising them for what they are. To face without flinching the nullity of the great void." ('Varieties of Meaning')
    Tsunami Days is a vital collection of essays for those prepared to engage with its unflinching observations.

    [How to Be Alone] is a mesmerizing exploration of solitude that unravels the intricate tapestry of human aloneness with raw honesty and lyrical precision. Through crystalline prose that cuts straight to the marrow of modern isolation, this groundbreaking work illuminates the distinction between loneliness and solitude, revealing how the art of being alone is not merely an absence of others, but a presence unto itself. With unflinching insight into the way silence speaks in its own language and time moves at its own pace when we're truly by ourselves, the book transforms our understanding of solitary moments from something to be feared into something to be embraced. Like an intimate conversation held in the quiet hours of dawn, it guides readers through the subtle geography of solo existence, offering both practical wisdom and philosophical depth that resonates with startling clarity in our hyperconnected age.

    After a couple of years, I’ve finally finished this book. It contains a sixth and concluding part of the story. To think I only intended to write a single part, mainly because I was big on writing short stories back then. Anyway, I do hope you enjoy this sci-fi story as much as I enjoyed writing it. 
     
    This book is intended for adults only. All characters depicted are 18 or older.
