Naming of this journal and email service

April 28, 2024

The current blog’s name is more of a description than a proper name.

I propose a few names considering my direction for this blog and email service.

My mission statement:

“A compendium of letters blending technology startup management, stoic philosophy, active lifestyle ethos, and a love for culture. It aims to mentor and inspire through insightful content and practical advice, focusing on personal and professional growth for a balanced and fulfilling life.”

~ Uki D. Lucas

Please consider that Zeno, the founder of Stoic philosophy, was a Greek. Marcus Aurelius, a Roman emperor, wrote in Greek as it was customary for educated classes.

Remember that “Stoic” philosophy comes from “stoa,” a painted porch where philosophers met.

Per Uki’s request: DALL·E 2024-04-28 03.05.26 - A tranquil and reflective scene set in ancient Greece, depicting a painted porch (stoa) with classical Greek columns and architecture.
