What if the secret to living a happier life was simply changing our attitude about the things we experience?
“We get to decide for ourselves how things make us feel,” said the stock horse at last. “And that is good.”
The Stock Horse and the Stable Cat
In this enchanting new take on an age-old Stoic idea, an unlikely friendship teaches a faithful stock horse and a wily stable cat to see the world through each other’s eyes. Along the way, they learn a valuable lesson: there’s good to be found in everything, if we only take the time to look for it.
This much-loved classic from author Phil Van Treuren and Stoic Simple Press has been purchased and enjoyed by thousands of happy readers!
The Stock Horse and the Stable Cat tells the story of two friends who have very different opinions about what should be called “good” and “bad.” As they walk on the ranch together one autumn day, they realize that their own opinions of the world might not be the only way to see things.
The lesson in The Stock Horse and the Stable Cat is reflected in a passage that Roman Emperor Marcus Aurelius wrote to himself nearly two thousand years ago: “If we limited ‘good’ and ‘bad’ to our own actions, we’d have no call to challenge Fate, or to treat others as enemies.”
Customers highly recommend this book for adults and children, saying it is beautifully written and full of timeless life lessons. The book is easy to understand, enjoyable to read, and has gorgeous, full-color illustrations.
