Not necessarily.

What you say is true in that things are as they are and we may not be in a position to change that.

Pretty sure what @aether is aiming at is something along the lines of focusing instead on what you can control, even if the extent of that control is limited solely to how you feel about it:

The chief task in life is simply this: to identify and separate matters so that I can say clearly to myself which are externals not under my control, and which have to do with the choices I actually control. — Epictetus. Discourses. II.5

There are things which are within our power, and there are things which are beyond our power. Within our power are opinion, aim, desire, aversion, and, in one word, whatever affairs are our own. Beyond our power are body, property, reputation, office, and, in one word, whatever are not properly our own affairs.— Epictetus, Enchiridion.

Lest you think that pointless, I invite you to consider feelings of anguish or despair as opportunities for growth.

Just as we test our strength under a bar in order to harden the body, so too do we endure hardship with grace in order to harden the spirit:

Difficulties strengthen the mind, as labour does the body.

Seneca

Every difficulty in life presents us with an opportunity to turn inward and to invoke our own submerged inner resources. The trials we endure can and should introduce us to our strengths.

Epictetus

I get that this is a trying time. It’s been hard on all of us in one way or another.

Know that you have the strength to endure this and, beyond that, to thrive. In doing so, you serve as an example to others.

God knows we’ll need you in the days to come.
