La vita è bella? The View from my Soapbox
-
- Philosophy
Do you think life is beautiful? Do you think life’s not fair? Are those two views mutually exclusive? This week we dive into what it means to cultivate radical hope, and why it’s so essential. Also, my apologies, I realize I was talking a bit too close to the mic, I’ll fix that next time. In the meantime, enjoy my very hard p’s.
