An Essay by William James

I read an essay by William James last night. It is entitled: "Is Life Worth Living?" and is part of a book THE WILL TO BELIEVE: AND OTHER ESSAYS IN POPULAR PHILOSOPHY. You can find the essay by going to The Will to Believe and Other Essays in Popular Philosophy . . . Google Books. It begins at page 33, and all of the article appears at this site.

I have always liked reading things written by William James, but what he wrote in this essay really hit me deep down. I am very grateful to have come across it in a book I had buried on a shelf.

I am going to read it again before I take up my topic again on Providence and Problems.
