Building upon many years of privately shared thoughts on the real benefits of Stoic Philosophy, Liam Milburn eventually published a selection of Stoic passages that had helped him to live well. They were accompanied by some of his own personal reflections. This blog hopes to continue his mission of encouraging the wisdom of Stoicism in the exercise of everyday life. All the reflections are taken from his notes, from late 1992 to early 2017.

Dhammapada 246, 247
He who destroys life, who speaks untruth, who in this world takes what is not given him, who goes to another man's wife;
And the man who gives himself to drinking intoxicating liquors, he, even in this world, digs up his own root.
