Marcus Aurelius is a good source for Stoic Philosophy. One of the main ideas is that nature cannot give more stress or pain than the body was designed to handle. Everything is in nature just as it was meant to be so worry or distress is wasted effort. In a word, Acceptance.In stoicism what does it truly mean when they say live according with nature?
It would require inhuman restraint. To live as nature appears to do having no emotion towards loss or gain, no affectations from any source, completely indifferent to occurences.
