Whim of the Universe

More and more I feel that I am at the mercy of the whim of the universe. Things can change so quickly and suddenly you have a completely new life. And on top of that there is nothing that you can do about it. Not that this is always a bad thing. Sometimes the whim of the universe changes in your favor and sometimes it changes against you. Sometimes it just changes and then life is just different. It's not always the universe that has these whims that change everything. Sometimes it's some jerks wearing overpriced suits stuffing their fat guts with money (I don't mean to be negative I just like the imagery). I guess the bottom line is we have to be nimble and roll with the punches and do our best in hopes that everything will turn out alright.
