On a Happy Life
Literature论幸福生活
(ancient Rome) Seneca
"On Happy Life" is a short treatise that discusses not only a happy life, but also a morally good life. Seneca believed that true goodness is moral goodness, true corruption is moral corruption, and all other things are neutral. Still, we are naturally biased toward certain neutral things, such as health, wealth, and a good reputation, without any dependence on them. The eloquent and in-depth story makes people suddenly enlightened and have a more thorough understanding of the meaning of a happy life. Today, when impetuousness is rampant, "On Happy Life" still has great significance.
