“The cause of an event is often unclear. You will feel less anxiety if you can learn to be comfortable with ambiguity. ”
@TheStoicEmperor

In modern life, you may not always know why a friend cancels plans last minute. Instead of dwelling on the uncertainty, practice acceptance and focus on the present moment. For example, when your flight gets delayed without a clear explanation, use the time to read a book or catch up on work rather than getting frustrated over the unknown cause.

Trust in the LORD with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make straight your paths.
Proverbs 3:5-6 ESV

Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight. The Bible verse encourages us to trust in God's wisdom and providence even when the causes of events are unclear, aligning with the Stoic value of Wisdom in accepting ambiguity.
