Ep30. "Game of Thrones" (پادشاه گردشی)
Dear listener, Jaad-e Maiwand is back! I had to deal with some personal set-backs, but I managed to finally get myself together and give it yet another go. Podcasting is my passion. I love making shows that we all can enjoy listening to. Shows that hopefully can change some minds along the way, including my own!
Life's struggles are not foreign to me. They are part and parcel of the human condition. All we can ever manage is to take a moment, reflect, gather ourselves, and give life another shot. We all have to go thru dark times, but as Rumi says "the wound is the place where the light gets in".
As a fan of Nietzsche, I believe in 'amor fati' or love of fate. And with the Stoics I too believe in the principle of 'askēsis' or developing clear judgment and inner calm.
This might not be the best times in human history, but we definitely have had it worse. This is no time to be cynical or dismissive about the world we live in. I appreciate being alive among friends, family and the love of my life. That should be enough reason to get any of us back on track. 🙂
Let us show some gratitude for what we have. We all can be a bit more kinder to each-other. Or as Marcus Aurelius once said "The only wealth which you will keep forever is the wealth you have given away." This podcast is that little bit of 'wealth' which I am 'giving away' 😉
Hope you enjoy the show. If you do, then do give the show a thumbs-up 👍 which would encourage me and also support the show.
Take care and don't forget to spread love and kindness. 🙏
Maiwand ❤️
