A bit of stoic philosophy for you from one of the great stoic philosophers
The chief task in life is simply this: to identify and separate matters so that I can say clearly to myself which are externals not under my control, and which have to do with the choices I actually control. Where then do I look for good and evil? Not to uncontrollable externals, but within myself to the choices that are my own.
Epictetus
The truth from the mouth of yours truly is – You can’t control what happens, you only control how you respond to what happens
‘Taint no sense in getting mad at the great pumpkin.
Better off just giving him the finger.
