  Stoicism - Finding Strength in...

  Stoicism is an ancient Greek philosophy that teaches how to live a good life, one filled with virtue, wisdom, and tranquility. Founded by Zeno of Citium in the early 3rd century BCE, Stoicism is built on the idea that the key to happiness and fulfillment lies not in external circumstances, but in how we choose to respond to them. The philosophy emphasizes the development of self-control, rational thought, and resilience in the face of adversity. While it originated in ancient Greece, Stoicism has influenced many philosophers and continues to resonate with modern thinkers, offering practical tools for navigating life’s challenges. 
  At the core of Stoicism is the belief in distinguishing between what we can control and what we cannot. According to Stoic principles, we cannot control external events, but we can control our responses to them. This idea, known as the Dichotomy of Control, encourages individuals to focus on their actions, thoughts, and emotions rather than worrying about things beyond their influence. This shift in perspective can lead to greater peace of mind and less suffering, as it frees us from the emotional turmoil of trying to change the uncontrollable. 
  Stoicism is often associated with a few key figures, including Epictetus, Seneca, and Marcus Aurelius. Each of these philosophers contributed their own insights into the practice of Stoicism, emphasizing different aspects of the philosophy. Epictetus, for example, taught that true freedom comes from mastering our internal world, while Seneca focused on the importance of reflection and mindfulness in everyday life. Marcus Aurelius, a Roman emperor, applied Stoic principles to leadership and the challenges of ruling an empire, demonstrating how Stoicism can be practiced by anyone, no matter their role in society.

  A move at age ten from a Detroit suburb to Chattanooga in 1984 thrusts Anjali Enjeti into what feels like a new world replete with Confederate flags, Bible verses, and whiteness. It is here that she learns how to get her bearings as a mixed-race brown girl in the Deep South and begins to understand how identity can inspire, inform, and shape a commitment to activism. Her own evolution is a bumpy one, and along the way Enjeti, racially targeted as a child, must wrestle with her own complicity in white supremacy and bigotry as an adult. 
   
   
   
  The twenty essays of her debut collection, Southbound, tackle white feminism at a national feminist organization, the early years of the AIDS epidemic in the South, voter suppression, gun violence and the gun sense movement, the whitewashing of southern literature, the 1982 racialized killing of Vincent Chin, social media's role in political accountability, evangelical Christianity's marriage to extremism, and the rise of nationalism worldwide. 
   
   
   
  In our current era of great political strife, this timely collection by Enjeti, a journalist and organizer, paves the way for a path forward, one where identity drives coalition-building and social change.

  MAN’S SEARCH FOR MEANING - An...

  Viktor Frankl

  Man’s Search for Meaning is a book published in 1946 by Austrian psychiatrist Viktor Frankl. It is an autobiographical and psychological work in which the author recounts his experiences in Nazi concentration camps during World War II and the development of his theory of logotherapy. 
  Through his experience, Frankl argues that the primary driving force in human beings is not the pursuit of pleasure (as Freud claimed) nor the will to power (as Adler maintained), but the search for meaning in life. 
  The book is divided into three parts:Experiences in a Concentration Camp – where he recounts the horrors he lived through in Auschwitz and Dachau.Logotherapy in a Nutshell – where he explains the foundations of his psychological theory.Postscript 1984: The Case for Tragic Optimism – a reflection on the human attitude toward suffering. 
  Throughout the book, Frankl argues that even in the most extreme conditions, human beings can find a purpose that enables them to survive. 
  Man’s Search for Meaning is a deeply inspiring work that blends autobiography with existential psychology. Through his time in the concentration camps, Viktor Frankl shows that human beings can endure any suffering if they find a purpose in their lives. His theory of logotherapy offers a unique approach to confronting existential emptiness and suffering. 
  Frankl leaves us with a powerful lesson: the ultimate human freedom lies in our ability to choose our attitude in any given situation. While we may not always be able to change our circumstances, we can decide how to respond. And in that decision lies our dignity, our humanity, and our purpose. 
  Finally, his theory of logotherapy is not just a therapeutic tool, but a philosophy of life that invites us to reflect on our daily choices and the purpose we give to our existence.
