A book I wouldn't have read if I wouldn't have gotten it as a gift. I'm not really one for those philosophical stories where one author tells you stuff thousands before already did. But one never knows, right?

So I gave it a try.

And got what I expected. Stories that have already been told a thousand times and often better than they way they're presented here. But it's a cute idea and a lovely idea for people new to philosophy.

In two words: Ok, boomer.😅
This is written from a place of immense privilege and 'why are you here?' becomes a very dark question when you haven't won the place-of-birth lottery.
The sarcasm about having enough money for retirement made me especially angry. There is a fine line between how much do you really need and being unable to afford a roof over your head.
Also all sorts of epiphanies seem to happen on expensive holidays abroad.🤔

A German Blinkist audio. I liked the 3 questions that it starts with, but if you take into account that I listened to it yesterday afternoon and already have forgotten about everything but those questions, you can guess that I was not very impressed. Maybe I will re-listen to it but, honestly, I think, it just provided kind of every day knowledge to me and that‘s why I couldn‘t relate too much.

Come-read-with-me The picture looks yummy! 3y
