Stoicism and Making Choices over chances

We get sick
We get disgraced
Some are forced to go exile 

We plan to move ahead but caught by huddles to cross.

What will a stoicist do amidst chaos; in a circle of concern? 

What would you have done especially  when the Taliban was approaching to retake the Kabul government ?

The answer is not one. 

A Stoicist with virtue, would amend his will to suit the world and remain, in other words, "sick and yet happy, in peril and yet happy, dying and yet happy, in exile and happy, in disgrace and happy",

Fine. 

Thinking again to pave a new for alternative choice of action could be better than following some existing alternatives lies in the passage of your memory lane.
