better

I read this today: "The goal isn't to be the best stoic. The goal is to live the best life." I'm working to incorporate  stoicism as a tool used to achieve a /better life.

But I'm not finding  Stoicism to address life's meaning well. It also doesn't do a great job of moral philosophy or epistemology. But I'm finding it's outstanding in the tools it give us to make life less painful.

I guess the ultimate point is to take from each philosophy what is helpful with your goal and ignore the rest.
