[1]Figuring Out 'The Good Life'

    The idea of the "good life" is a core idea of philosophy, often
    described with a single Greek word, eudaimonia (there's your new
    word for the day, most likely). It simply means aiming for the
    highest human good - the good life, in other words.

    Those pictures, and the others that were shared, all point to rather
    different day to day lives, even though they all have a few things
    in common. Rather than rattle on a lot about what elements would
    make up my idea of the good life, I was actually more interested in
    what elements are commonly found in the ideas of the good life that
    lots of people shared with me, so I thought about those stories and
    asked a few others what they thought the "good life" was.

  The article touches on many concepts that, unsurprisingly, ancient
  philosophers also documented. What I appreciate is Trent's typically
  through tie back to the site's themes about personal finance.

  I'm bookmarking, PDFing to my Kindle, and then taking some time to
  really dig into this and what it can mean for me.
