EP42 - Was COVID-19 meant to be?
Manage episode 348562022 series 3089507
Should I be fatalistic toward the future?
I write this in the middle of Covid-19 pandemic.
It’s easy to think, ‘oh it’s not fair’. If only that person in China who first contracted the disease didn’t go to that seafood market. If only I would have save more money. If only, if only, if only.
There is a great saying suggesting we should not cry over spilled milk. This is a profoundly deep stoic thought.
The Stoics were fatalists. This means that whatever happened was meant to happen and whatever happens will happen regardless of whatever happens.
