@willowtigger, thank you so much... you are very sweet!

Good to know you were able to validate your feelings and perceptions.

Perhaps I was not describing the Stoic viewpoints accurately enough. It doesn't mean that they never get upset, but that they try to anticipate such things and have methods of dealing with them also.
Thanks for this!
