Presentation
“ You undoubtedly aspire, dear reader, to a successful life. Not necessarily to succeed in life, but to lead a good and happy existence. Throughout the world, men and women have always nourished this aspiration and worked to implement it. Everyone believes that what gives meaning to our life is growing in humanity. For my part, I am convinced that this philosophical ideal of wisdom remains the subject of a very current quest, because we are not on earth only to ensure our material security, to entertain ourselves and to consume. »
How to be yourself and tune into the world? Become more loving and virtuous? Find the path to inner liberation? Grow in joy and find serenity? So many questions to which Frédéric Lenoir, himself in search of wisdom since adolescence, answers with sincerity and simplicity, leading us to follow in the footsteps of his inspirations, such as Epicurus, Epictetus, the Buddha, Tchouang-tseu, Montaigne , Spinoza or Etty Hillesum, even drawing inspiration from the wisdom of children.
A luminous and dense book like wisdom.
