Stoicism may be an ancient philosophy, but it is one that has even more relevance to our daily lives now that we are in the modern world. Too often we find that we aren't able to control our lives, control the events that go on, or even control the people and how they act. But with stoicism, we learn that we can control some things, such as our emotions and our reactions, and this can help to lead us to happiness.
