It’s a short but powerful book with which you should spend an afternoon. \n\nIn this episode, we’ll focus on a couple of passages from Traherne’s Meditations. In them, he lists the countless gifts that the sun bestows upon us every single day–of which we’re almost always unmindful, and for which we’re hardly ever grateful. \n\nYou can use this episode to think about and appreciate nature or, if drowsy, to help you fall asleep. \n\nPlease give this channel a 5-star rating.
