Most of us have heard of the Serenity Prayer: "God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, courage to change the things I can, and wisdom to know the difference." Stoic philosophy teaches a similar principle. Some things are in our control, and other things are not, and we must learn to accept the fact that some things are out of our control, and we should learn to let those things go. We aren't responsible for the things we can't control, so we should try to accept the fact that things are the way they are and instead focus our efforts into doing what we can.
It's not helpful to worry about things we can't control, so we should practice stoicism and serenity by learning to let those things go.
