A Post for Ana

Seeing this instagram post, specifically the caption, made me want to recommend the Alan W Watts’ The Wis­dom of Inse­cu­rity to you.

I recognise that it was based very much on the final chapters of Daniel Kahneman’s Thinking, Fast and Slow.

Having read that book, I still agree more with Watts’ emphasis on the present and think that anticipating future memories as a means of securing happiness is a false economy.

I wonder what your thoughts are now that you’ve read both too.
