I have had this on my list to read for a while. I find it different then what I expected. As a good friend recommended it is a book that you need to read in short segments hunting for the gold nuggets. Here is one that caused me to ponder and think about.
Book 8:28:
Either pain affects the body (which is the body's problem) or it affects the soul. But the soul can choose not to be affected, preserving its own serenity, its own tranquility. All our decisions, urges, desires, aversions lie within. No evil can touch them.
I have been pondering what pain (emotional, mental, physical) have I allowed to touch my soul?
