 How often do you find yourself wishing for life to unfold differently?  Epictetus, a prominent Stoic philosopher, offers a powerful perspective with this quote, advocating the acceptance of circumstances beyond our control as essential for achieving tranquility and contentment in life.

"Welcome events in whichever way they happen: 

this is the path to peace”
Epictetus
