QUOTE & POSTER: In the natural order of the world, suffering is random. Bad things happen to good people just about as often as they happen to bad people. We have not been given a shield protecting us from misfortune, but there is within all of us waiting to be discovered, the strength to deal with adversity, to overcome it, and learn from it so we can still find love, laughter and joy despite it. You Have All You Need -Michael Josephson

Virtue Does Not Provide Immunity

Expecting the world to treat you fairly because you are good is like expecting a bull not to charge because you are a vegetarian. Lots of good things come to good people, but virtue does not provide immunity to misfortune, which strikes everyone at random times in unanticipated ways. When your turn comes, don’t take it personally.
