“Peak Civilization”: The Fall of the Roman Empire
by Morgan on Jun.14, 2011, under What I'm Reading
http://europe.theoildrum.com/node/5528
An interesting (if long) article comparing the fall of Rome to other civilizations, including our own. He quotes Marcus Aurelius, “Nature which governs the whole will soon change all things which thou seest, and out of their substance will make other things, and again other things from the substance of them, in order that the world may be ever new.”
Or, as Heraclitus put it, more succinctly, “the only constant is change.”
First Bees Donation
by Morgan on Jun.14, 2011, under Writing
Nick Csernak and I have selected Bees Without Borders as the charity dedicated to protection of bee populations that we will support with sales of the Bees Knees children’s book.
The first payment of $36 has been sent to Bees Without Borders. It’s a small amount, but as Lao Tzu said, “The journey of a thousand miles begins with one step.”
Last Stoic Launched!
by Morgan on Jun.07, 2011, under The Last Stoic
The book launch was a success! Thanks so much to all of you who attended, especially those who came in from out of town. I feel very fortunate to have such wonderful family and friends.
If you missed the launch but you’re still interested in getting a copy and you’re in the Kingston area, let me know and you can get one hand-delivered at the best price (author’s discount!).
If you’re outside of the Kingston area, the book can be ordered online for only $20 (Canadian orders, shipping included) from http://www.morganwade.ca/mw/the-last-stoic-2/
Or, from Amazon.com or Barnes and Noble
