Soren Kierkegaard Quote

What’s Up With Me?

If you’re wondering how I am now since I was sick earlier, I’m doing a lot better. I’ve pretty much recovered now except for a lingering cough that has decided to stay past it’s welcome (which was zero days). I hate coughing so it has been annoying but life goes on. Thankfully, I have got my sense of smell back although for the first few days it was overwhelming to smell everything once more. It’s like the scents felt sharper and more potent. But I’m alright now.

In other news, I have been quite busy recently and I am excited to share what I’ve been busy with. I’m sure some of you will be able to guess what’s happening. But I’m still excited to share the good news soon.

Since I had some more time recently as I have not been posting as much on Lifesfinewhine, I’ve been reading the complete works of Edgar Allen Poe. I realised that a lot of classic books are free on the Kindle app and this was one of them so I’m taking advantage of that. Next on my list is East Of Eden. I’m quite excited to read so many classics. If you have not taken advantage of the free books on the Kindle app, I would recommend doing so.

    Brilliant blog post Pooja G my friend. I like the quote because it is so true and very interesting. Indeed life is an experience and we experience stuff every day.

    Also, I am glad that you are feeling better now, being sick just on the season of Xmas is not a good thing. At least the coughs have stopped and you will continue blogging as usual💯👏

    The only issues I had with the kindle free classics was that the formatting could be extremely atrocious. It looked like they had taken the free gutenberg versions and turned them into kindle versions and hte conversion wasn’t that great. Hoping you’re not having to deal with that…..

    Well, good thing

    I’m glad you are doing well. Drink some hot water in early morning, natural cough killer.

    I love free stuff, who doesn’t. I don’t like e-books that that thing. I love reading actual books. E-Books means, additional screen time. Which I want to strictly avoid.

    PooG, how are you, dear friend?
    I missed reading your work. I had an opportunity to read old work of yours, but time never allowed me. I am happy to receive notifications of the latest updates from your side.

    East of Eden was one of my favourite books – you know you feel as if you’ve lost something when you reach the end; you want it to go on forever!
    But I was just thinking. I read it about 50 years ago! I don’t know if it still holds up! Some do and some don’t. I think it will!! Must read it again!!

    I started using Kindle a couple weeks ago but so many of the books I’d like to read aren’t free. 😒 It’s hard to find free “tech” books because they’re so difficult to write. The free ones are usually little more than long blog posts with no research, bad writing, and often factually wrong statements haha.

    Kierkegaard was referenced a lot by Peterson back when I was reading him. I haven’t directly read any Kierkegaard work but I know Peterson’s academic work is based a lot on him.

      Yeah, that makes sense. I can’t imagine how difficult it much be to write a tech book considering I’m struggling just with poetry lol 😅 Hopefully you’ll find some good ones though.

      I haven’t read much by Kierkegaard except some reading we were assigned in uni but I did find it interesting.

    I am still working on my renovations, but getting close to completing them. I have to take my car in for some expensive maintenance later in the week.

    I used to have a set of Britannica Great Books, but lost them in a fire. I found this site that offers links to free e-book versions of the Great Books of the Western world.
