In life, we can either let our experiences make us bitter, or we can channel that feeling towards being a good example in order to improve things.

poem

A big business he had
and had a big cash flow.
Power he felt ran through
his vains and was very joyous.
Until it collasped.
Disappointment and dread
swept over him.
How? why? were the questions
on his mind.
In his mind, he was in control.

ahhhhh, but who really has the control...... Avinu Shebashamayim.
Only when we realize and acknowledge that do we gain some semblance of "control".

Exactly.

Unfortunately, a lot of people think that it's only themselves in this world and nothing else, and believe man made up G-d. But really He made us. And if He were to stop thinking about us for a second, we would disappear.

Sometimes we learn this the hard way. And sometimes we don't learn it at all. But if we do, we should keep it in mind.
