Abstract

I joined Trevelyan College (Trevs), Durham University in 2011 as a mature student under former professor and principle of the college Martyn Evans. It was to be the beginning of a transformative journey culminating in my doctoral thesis: Balanced Wonder: A Philosophical Inquiry into the Role of Wonder in Human Flourishing. In 2020 Trevs kindly asked me to contribute to the Alumni Magazine Hippocampus and in particular to the ‘Where Are They Now’ section. “You Haven’t Done Anything” is my contribution and it highlights in a humorous fashion some of the things I have achieved since I left Trevs. Sections: Standing still is rarely a good strategy in life If One Lives Wisely Sometimes Less is More and Infinately More Valuable
