Arthur Dobrin, Leader Emeritus of the Ethical Humanist Society of Long Island, has released "Spiritual Timber" in a web-readable form.
This book of epigraphs, aphorisms and parables is meant to illuminate how to address some of life's pain. Of course, the pain I am talking about is spiritual -- or psychic or philosophical, if you prefer.
I start with the belief that all rational people want to be happy. I further believe that happiness is achievable through self-cultivation. And finally, I believe that proper self-cultivation is not self-centered but other--centered.
