Very good explanation. Being Stoic doesn’t mean being helpless, a doormat, or not caring. I spend so much energy on the “result” instead of what I have power over (myself, my actions, even my reactions). But it’s such a powerful idea, to work on what’s in my control and just let go of the other things. Thanks for the reply, nicely put
