Greetings friends, after a pilgrimage to Mount Athos I’ve become more keen to explore Orthodox Christianity. I’m looking to hire a consultant who is well connected and familiar with the orthodox community with a few projects of mine. If you know anyone tell them to email me: johnathan@greatbooks.io
Back to our regular scheduled programming…
If you feel romantically unfulfilled, this book is for you.
Plato’s symposium will teach you not just what you are doing wrong but give you an alternative path to satisfy your deepest erotic yearnings.
Whom to love is the most consequential decision you will ever make in your life:
If you get this right, you could end up with an angel who elevates your life to a level you didn’t think possible.
If you get this wrong you could waste the best years of your life suing your worst enemy over the custody of children who’ve come to hate you.
Do not underestimate how good and how bad love can make your life. Fortunately, Plato has given us a guide about how to get love right.
