I'm one of them. The crummy job I left? The "universe" wasn't "taking care of me" there either. The deficits were vaguer and harder to see than the financial deficits, but they were just as real, maybe more important, and certainly more confusing.

Leaving was recognition that the universe was indifferent to the whole matter and I had best figure out how to take myself. I'm a lot closer to that then I ever would have been there. And I've wasted a lot less time on anxiety and resentment over things I couldn't control or understand.
