Nothing To Catch
Stoic Reflections on Control, Time, and UncertaintyBy Lucian Verne
Length42m
About this audiobook
You think you’re getting ahead. You think you’re becoming complete. You think something will catch you if it all goes wrong.
But none of it holds.
In Nothing to Catch, Lucian Verne explores the quiet illusions that shape how we move through time - control, progress, certainty, and the belief in a final, stable version of ourselves. Through 4 deeply reflective pieces, this collection invites you to release the need to stay ahead, to let go of what cannot be secured, and to stand fully within the present as it is.
There is no finish line. No safety net. No final form.
Only this moment, and how you choose to meet it.
