If you're an Atheist, what comforts you?
#9
RE: If you're an Atheist, what comforts you?
Wisdom of Insecurity by Alan Watts. Completely changed my perception of the world around me, and it is something I routinely reread in difficult times. He also has plenty of lectures on YouTube.

Some may not be receptive to his words, as some consider his writings should fall under the category of "truisms"; though I'd disagree with that. Hes also been lumped in with New Age, but he isn't. He essentially interprets ancient Eastern philosophy for a Western audience. And hes a brilliant writer and orator.

I follow both a Stoic and Taoist (surprisingly similar) philosophy that shapes my actions and words.
