Timeless wisdom on generosity and gratitude from the great Stoic philosopher Seneca
To give and receive well may be the most human thing you can do--but it is also the closest you can come to divinity. So argues the great Roman Stoic thinker Seneca (c. 4 BCE-65 CE) in his longest and most searching moral treatise, "On Benefits" (De Beneficiis). James Romm's splendid new translation of essential selections from this work conveys the heart of Seneca's argument that generosity and gratitude are among the most important of all virtues. For Seneca, the impulse to give to others lies at the very foundation of society; without it, we are helpless creatures, worse than wild beasts. But generosity did not arise randomly or by chance. Seneca sees it as part of our desire to emulate the gods, whose creation of the earth and heavens stands as the greatest gift of all. Seneca's soaring prose captures his wonder at that gift, and expresses a profound sense of gratitude that will inspire today's readers. Complete with an enlightening introduction and the original Latin on facing pages, How to Give is a timeless guide to the profound significance of true generosity.Binding Type: Hardcover

Size matters: They fit to the size you order.
Size: 34, Color: Black
I’ve found these sweatpants are light & fit to my size. Comfortable & reasonably priced, I’ve ordered a second pair.

Somewhat satisfied
Size: 38, Color: Light Khaki
I like them........ but don't love them. comfortable material but fit is a little off for me. Ordered these because of the length which was perfect....... until you sit down. They tend to hike up quite a bit which was the issue with even my no so long joggers. Figured these would solve that high-water-esque issue but they did not. They really ride up the legs when seated.

Look great on my preteen with just a little chub who wears 32 or 34" with 32" inseam
Size: 32, Color: Navy, Size: 32, Color: Navy
I got these in a 32" waist for my preteen son who is between 32 and 34 right now. He either has pants that are too tight or too loose and he feels like they're falling off all the time. These fit him perfectly. The length hits just right, the stretch in the waist is enough that they fit well without squeezing his pre-growth-spurt chub out in an unflattering way. They are comfortable enough he came out with a smile and asked if he could keep them on. That hasn't happened in a very long time. He loves the pockets. I'm really hoping that when he grows a few more inches they still look as good on him.
He did say they conduct the temperature a lot, so if you're wearing them outside on a cool day, you might need to layer a bit. They also do have a bit of a swish too them as they are the water repellant material, but it's a quiet swish rather than the 80s/90s rain wear swish too many of us remember too well. If you have a little chub and want to look sleek, these are a great option. I'm impressed with how flattering they are on his current build. He wears pants with a 32" inseam and these fit him just like it's shown in the ads, snug right around the ankle by the shoe. I haven't included pictures of him wearing them as there are already quite a few of those, but these do attract dog hair more than an average pair of jeans in the crotch and ankles. Why those spots, I have no idea. I just know that our cream colored Siberian husky is shedding a ridiculous amount right now and you can really see it on these pants, so be prepared to get some sort of lint roller/remover for these.
As a side note, it also had the appearance of pilling in some of the pictures I took, but I couldn't see or feel anything there, so I'll be watching to see if there is randomly the same dust all over the pants or if pilling starts to happen. Also, he knows chub or no chub he's amazing and handsome and I'm proud he's mine, so it's not me being a harsh mama, just an honest mama in this review.
