I wanted to share with you some work of authors who have impacted me. One of my favourite writers at the moment is Robert Greene whose books generally focus on themes of power and human nature. But today we will be exploring the sublime nature of reality.
His work has helped me to gain a sense of personal sovereignty over my life and I highly recommend you check him out if you are not already familiar.
This particular book is a set of meditations based on all his previous work. The reading today is from the month of December, whose theme is the Cosmic Sublime. I found this passage really beautiful as it reminds us that when we disconnect from all the dramas of the world and our own inner world, there is an abundance of beauty all around us. We forget that we are the product of billions of years of evolution from the beginning of the Universe to now. We rarely reflect on how incredible it is to be made of the very same material of the stars.
If you are feeling disconnected from the sheer awe and magic that life has to offer then this is worth a listen.
I hope you enjoy as much as I did.
