The Gregg Group was founded 22 May 2004, prompted by the lack of online shorthand resources. As the primary use for shorthand — business and legal recording — has waned in recent decades, we generally acclaim the skill as a hobby or personal tool. The purpose of the group is to promote the use of Gregg systems of shorthand by providing advice to beginners, support for students, and an association of users of this efficient, attractive, and enjoyable method of writing.
The Conduct of Life is a series of essays by Ralph Waldo Emerson in which he addresses how should a person live. In this excerpt from his essay Culture he discusses simple living. I transcribed it for the blog in Centennial Gregg.
