In any difficult situation, we really have only two options:
Live with it
Try to change it
Suffering happens when we hold out for a third or fourth option. Like when we expect someone else to step in and change things for us. Or when we hope something will magically happen to make it better.
There’s freedom and power in realizing we have only two options.

Hi DJ !
This article remind me of the dichotomy of control that we find in the Stoïcism philosophy : there is the thing that are in our control, and there is the others.
I really like your way to express it in your own words :).
See ya,
Nicolas
