Essays: De Rerum Natura
A raw, unflinching collection of essays on pain, discipline, redemption, and the inner war every man must fight in rebuilding himself.

In Essays: De Rerum Natura, Gregory Blotnick takes readers on a searing journey through the depths of the human condition, exploring suffering, forgiveness, and the constant tension between failure and renewal. With hard-earned wisdom and philosophical depth, he champions relentless personal accountability not as a form of penance, but as the only true path to freedom.

Blotnick writes not as a guide but as a fellow traveler through the dark night of the soul, sharing lessons forged in the fires of personal collapse. In this collection of thirty essays, he weaves these reflections with the timeless insights of thinkers like Pascal, Schopenhauer, Seneca, Nietzsche, and Plutarch, creating a powerful blend of lived experience and enduring wisdom.

Part memoir, part philosophical guide, and part spiritual reckoning, Essays: De Rerum Natura is a blueprint for rebuilding after defeat. Above all, it is a clarion call for readers to "keep showing up to life," holding firm in their own self-belief as they transform suffering into strength.
