How do we react when unexpected things—such as a job loss or a health problem—happen to us?
How do we react to predictable daily events?
We often react to events in a way that causes more misery. Many people get depressed by they way they habitually react to things.
We are in the predicament we are in because we misinterpret the world around us. We try to control what we cannot and fail to control what we can.
The basic conclusion of Stoicism is that the world around us—the externals—has nothing to do with our happiness or otherwise. It all depends on how we interpret the impressions.
Yet what is simple in theory is not so simple in practice. When we face a difficult situation, we are confused. We are not sure how to react. So it is always good to think about different challenges we may potentially face in our daily life and be prepared for them. It helps us to develop a Stoic perspective.
That’s the focus of the current issue. Our contributing editors in this issue tackle a number of challenges:
• What is the Stoic art of living? (Jonas Salzgeber)
• How would a Stoic cope with life’s challenges? (Marc Epsen)
• Can a Stoic be political? (Kai Whiting)
• Should a Stoic consider everything that comes their way useful? (Sharon Lebell)
• How do we deal with our children’s frustrations the Stoic way? (Meredith Kunz)
• What is Stoic courage?
• How do we deal with our wavering mind? (Seneca)
The articles in this issue provide the Stoic perspective to get you started.

This month's "Message In a Bottle" special issue of The Stoic poses the question what Stoic message would modern stoics write, put in a bottle, and throw into the sea?

The answers come from eminent Stoic scholars, Stoic academics, Stoic therapists, and Stoic practitioners who
were generous enough to share their accumulated wisdom with us.

What did they tell us?
* You have an in-build capacity to make progress.
* Virtue is the path to the good life.
* What you do now matters.
* Trust your life is governed by reason.
* See yourself as part of the whole
* Wisdom is the most important thing in life
* Act on what's in your power.
* Exercise and enjoy your agency. 
* It's all a matter of choice.
* Respond rationally to whatever happens.
* Let your life be well-lived.
Read all these and more today.

More than 250,000 around the world have lost their lives to the COVID-19 pandemic. More than 3,500,000 have been diagnosed with it.
Compared to the world’s population of 7.5 billion people these are small
numbers.
But when it touches us or someone dear to us, the proportions are irrelevant.
To be concerned about oneself is natural. 
Given this how do we, as Stoics, mediate on how to live the right way?
In this issue, our contributors share their contemplations on different aspects of life to help us make the right choices in our journey towards the good life.

The essence of Stoicism  is not in its theory but in its practice. If so, it cannot be beyond the grasp of people like us, who are not professional philosophers.
Anyone who is interested in the art of living should be able to practice it. But how? If it is for everyone, where do we start? How do we apply it to different aspects of our lives?
It can be a little complicated. To practice Stoicism, we need to translate our knowledge into practice. This is not always easy to do. We can all do with some guidance here.
No worries. Our excellent team of modern Stoics shows us how. No aspect of life is too trivial. Here’s what we have for you in this issue.
The art of living revolves around the question ‘what is the best thing for me to do right now?
Stoicism asks us to practice virtue and avoid vice. But how do I apply this to the
predicament I am in now?
Stoicism says: Go figure it out. Kai Whiting shows us how to do this and how we can fend for ourselves. Sharon Lebell selects five specific Stoic principles for
these uncertain times.
At a time when we are “forced” to stay home, Flora Bernard poses the question,
“What does it really mean to be free?” and provides an answer. Using the Stockdale
paradox as an example, Greg Sadler asks us to balance our optimism with realism.
And there is more. 
How should we eat?
How should we listen? 
How should we handle uncertainty? 
These questions are handled by Donald Robertson, Jonas Salzgeber, and Meredith Kunz.

Since the time of Hierocles, the Stoics suggested that we are a part of a larger community. Steeped in our self-centered everyday concerns, we ignore others and devote our lives to our selfish pursuits.
When something like the coronavirus srikes, we suddenly realize that we are not alone. What happens in China today could potentially affect our future even if we are in a different country, thousands of miles away. It causes people who work in the travel industry to lose their jobs, investors to lose their money, and some to lose even their lives.
Now that is this Covid-19 pandemic is upon us, what should we do as practicing Stoics?
This Issue Includes: 
* Being Stoic at times like these 
* A time to practice Stoic virtues 
* A time to start doing small “sensible human things” 
* A time to examine the way we spend our lives
* A time to turn crisis into an opportunity 
* A time to evaluate the nature of what we have 
* Wisdom vs. Glory 
* The Stoic approach to ingratitude. Part 2
* The Stoic Advice 
And much more

In this issue, modern Stoics answer the question "Is This Stoic?" from different aspects. 
Greg Sadler suggests three questions to ask when wondering if something or someone is Stoic. 
Other questions include: 
• Are Thomas Jefferson’s ten rules Stoic? What
do the Stoics say? (Donald Robertson)
• Is being political Stoic? How do Stoic virtues
relate to sustainability? (Kai Whiting)
• Is ignoring violence Stoic? If not, what should
Stoics do about it? (Meredith Kunz)
• Is getting stuck on Channel C(razy) Stoic?
Prescriptions for anxiety. (Sharon Labell).

STOIC EVERY MOMENT
You read a book on Stoicism. Or listen to a lecture, read a blog, or see a post on social media. You are inspired. You are going to practice Stoicism. You are going to be happy, virtuous, and invincible.
But then real life intervenes and you are not sure what to do. 
To benefit fully from Stoicism, Stoic thinking and action should permeate every bone and fiber of your body and mind. Every thought and action is the grist for the Stoic mill. This is the theme of this issue. 
Contains:
Donald Robertson - Follow the Golden Rule
Kai Whiting - Pursue happiness
Meredith A. Kunz - Deal with bad behavior
Jonas Salzgeber - Play your roles well
Flora Bernard - Be grateful to others
Sharon Lebell - Care for the community
Jeff Rout - Build true friendships
Chuck Chakrapani - Be a Stoic every moment
