Despite being the wisest man to ever live, he failed to use this wisdom in his personal life

Hello my friend,

Welcome to another edition of Simpler Sundays by VyasSpeaks.

With this edition, we complete 1 year of Simpler Sundays. 🥳

Last year on 9th January, I relaunched this newsletter in a different format and today, a year later, I feel proud to say that I SOMEHOW managed to send a newsletter without missing any week.

Of course, there have been delays. There have been times when I felt that it won’t happen. At times, I repurposed and recreated some of the older posts. But despite all that, I managed to reach your inbox every Sunday.

Thank you for being a part of the journey. Really grateful to have all 203 of you who read this newsletter and show support every once in a while. ❤️

Not many of you would be aware that this was not my first attempt at a newsletter. I had started Simpler Sundays even in the past as well (twice actually). But I couldn’t stay consistent with it and had to shut it down both times.

Ever since I switched to Substack and this image-based format, things have changed. This third attempt has finally made me consistent with this newsletter. And that’s why last year was even more special in terms of this newsletter.

That said, I look forward to writing a lot more human stories with the intention to comfort and uplift. So, here’s to 2023. 🥂

May we grow from 203 to 2003 this year. 🎉

Now, for this week’s featured post, I share a story from the archives about the wisest man to ever live. I hope you enjoy this one.

As I always say - Happy reading!
