Reality Snaps You Awake

You spend your life in a comfortable dream state, believing in destiny. Then reality snaps you awake. Bad things happen as often as good things. Turns out we're nothing more than chemicals hurtling through space, haphazardly bouncing off each other, feeling stupid we ever believed there was some grand plan. 

Olivia Moore in iZombie "Even Cowgirls Get the Black and Blues"

Although it is human nature to want to put a grand scheme or destiny behind life, things just happen randomly. There is not a balance between the good and the bad and life can always be unfair to us. I think the best we can do is just sometimes is just hang on for the ride.
