    These letters have helped me navigate challenging times. I find them calming to listen to as I lay here on a floor mat. Thank you, Vox 🎉

    How stoic is it that he has no ads in his videos? That says to me, "im going to record this to the best of my abilities as i can muster, and whether or not anyone sees it, i will be fulfilled by the effort i put into it." Like marcus aurelius' diary, the obstacle becomes the way.

    These letters show a lost art...that was replaced by the stenoic style of mails used nowadays...The eloquence of written communicaton is...lost...sadly.That is one of the pleasures of hearing these recording. Thanks so much...

      Get a nice pen and a wax stamp and write some letters yourself. I do on occasion and it is very fulfilling.

      Im sorry but I have to say how clear it is that you arent listening with much intent 😂 Throughout these letters there are COUNTLESS appeals against "literary style" of any sort.. "Why do you tickle my ears with fancy words? I am to be operated on!".. Lol. Not trying to be rude but.. Im not sure if Seneca would have cared for your emphasis on symmantics.. And Im not sure that he would even take this as a compliment.. Probably would sound like more of an insult.
