I’m in my early 30’s and honestly the world has been on fire since always. First the Balkan wars next door when I was a kid, then 9/11, then Afghanistan, then ISIS, then Trump, then Covid.

Fuck it, I can’t think about all that. Focus on what’s in your sphere of control and ignore the rest.

March pulled me back into a vicious news cycle after I learned to ignore the news 10+ years ago. It was terrible.

Now I’m back to mostly ignoring the news and life is better.

PS: this is the core teaching of stoicism, focus on what you can control and don’t worry about what you can’t
