Manage episode 327282301 series 3233437
Andrew and Jason discuss whether or not practicing Stoicism can sometimes be selfish, due to the idea that we should focus on things we can control, and not worry about things we can't. However, this may be a misinterpretation as one of the over-arching values is that of Sympathea- that we are all in this together. While we may feel helpless in the wake of certain events or tragedies like natural disasters, there are always things we can do to help, even if we don't have control over the situation.
