Sinopsis

What does it mean to live a good life? Centuries before modern debates on happiness and well-being, Epicurus offered a radical answer—true happiness comes not from wealth, power, or indulgence, but from simple pleasures, meaningful friendships, and freedom from fear.
 
 
 
The Philosophy of Epicurus explores the wisdom of one of history’s most misunderstood thinkers. Far from promoting hedonism as excess, Epicurus taught that pleasure is best found in balance, self-sufficiency, and an untroubled mind. This book delves into his core teachings, from his views on gods and death to his ideas on ethics, desire, and the pursuit of tranquility.
 
 
 
With insights from ancient texts and modern interpretations, this book brings Epicurus’ timeless lessons into today’s world, offering a guide to finding fulfillment in an age of materialism and uncertainty. His philosophy may be ancient, but its relevance has never been greater.

    ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK 
    "The Giver" by Lois Lowry tells the story of Jonas, a young boy living in a seemingly perfect society that values sameness and control. The community has eliminated pain and suffering, but also emotions and individuality by removing memories of the past. As Jonas is chosen to be the next Receiver of Memory, he begins to understand that this utopia has come at a great cost. Through the memories that he receives from the current Receiver, known as The Giver, Jonas experiences the full spectrum of human emotions, both good and bad, which his community has suppressed. He learns of love, joy, war, and loss. This knowledge causes Jonas to question the morality of his society, and he ultimately decides that he must leave in search of a better way of life. The book explores the themes of memory, freedom, individuality, and the importance of emotions in human experience.

    1947: Year of the Crashed UFOs

    1947 was an amazing year. Strange green clouds and weird green rockets started appearing over New Mexico and reports started appearing early in the year, well before June 24th when Kenneth Arnold had his famous sighting of Flying Discs or Saucers over the Cascades in Washington. The kettle had been bubbling well before this. Around late June there were quite a few UFO sightings in the northwest of the United States but like 1896-1897, they were moving southeast towards New Mexico and Arizona amongst other places. To places with familiar names like Roswell on July 5th, as well as Barney Barnetts report from July 3rd. On July 5th there was a report from the Plains of San Augustin nearby where a wrecked saucer was found in a gully. Then it was Roswell also on the 5th, and it kept continuing. On July 8th there was another report of a crashed saucer at Socorro which was later to become famous again in the 1960s. This was a very amazing year. I hope that you enjoy listening to it.
