   Hot take: Stoicism is trending because the the world going to shit is becoming inreasingly evident to everyone. A philosophy of "don't look at the big picture, care about your own job only" helps people tune out the pain. Listening to piano music as titanic is sinking.
   
   There is a prayer I like:
   "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."
   
   The last line is the most important. How can we know whether we can change things or not. Premature acceptance is not good.
