The Parallel Sayings

-
Pursuit of wisdom and virtue
-
Prioritizing internal integrity over external display
-
Rejection of materialism and greed
-
Universal love and care for all humans
-
Emphasis on love, compassion, and fellowship
-
Insistence on social harmony and a just society

A Guide to Staying Calm, Mindful, and Engaged
Tranquility Parenting describes how Brittany Polat discovered modern Stoicism and what it can offer to stressed-out parents of the 21st century.
