Good day fellow mylotters, This morning my sister and I got a chance to have a little chat. As we are discussing our past daily activities. She was telling to me that some of her colleagues does not really work that much and yet get the high paid salaries. In connection with this, she have asked me, is life really fair. And if it is, why this situation happens. When she have asked me that question, I just really do not know what to answer, since, for the past few months, I am also experiencing life's unfair treatment. Good thing, we have visited one of our favorite quiet place yesterday and that is "The Lady of Manaoag Church", with that, we have come up and thinked that, "life is fair but the people surrounds you makes it really unfair". I really thank God for the wonderful day that He had given to us yesterday.

We can only rely on God with everything and every aspect of our lives including finances... Life may not be fair because some people makes it unfair but God is there to be our defender and judge... He will repay good to those who do good and those who do evil will reap bad things...

Tell you sister to just be contented with having a job. At least every payday, she has money to buy things of her own. Stop thinking of how life is so unfair, because those people who may not be deserving of such pay, might one day be made to pay for being so relax yet receiving good pay. Just be thankful that she has a job. A lot of people are jobless.

this is a good insight Airasheila. Yes, Life is fair indeed but people around me are very unfair. People treated you well if you have money and you are extending an extra but if everything else fails, then you'll see their true colors. I hate them for treating me as if I did not do good for them considering that I've done a lot of help not only financially but especially emotionally. Now that I needed it, they could not extend some. I thought that life is unfair, but because of you straightening things, yes it is indeed FAIR. Thank you very much!

Thanks for the positive post. I often think too that life is so unfair. You are right to say that life is fair, only the people makes it unfair. Good day to you, and keep up the positive attitude!

hi there,,hi airasheila,, :-) sometimes indeed we understand the true meaning of life, but the need we all know and remember, that GOD what we need is not what we want. :-)

If you really think about it, life isn't fair. There are just things that other people have that you don't have. It may be in terms of economic stand point or in relationships. There are even people out there that have everything. They have lots of money, a great family and good health. They are just blessed or lucky depending on how you look at it. I have had that same question every once in a while and whenever I notice myself feeling down and sometime envious of other people life I stop and think about what I have that other people don't have. I think about the blessing I have and focus more on that rather than focusing on other peoples blessings. Although life isn't equal in all aspects there are still a lot of things in life that we should be grateful. Its better to focus on our blessings and thankful for it than focusing on what others have and ignoring what you currently have.

life really is fair. Life is like a magic day you place some wonderful things tomorrow other things every day thing. surround us every day things some time, sometimes beautiful things ugly. but everyone gets a deserved sooner or later. Life is not fair. good discussion. nice day!

It has nothing to do with life being fair or unfair but with people. People are not fair. They say they are honest, they say it's bad to lie but they do the opposite. They say they will pay the hardest workers but reality is they pay those with the biggest mouth. They say bullying is a bad thing but the bullies rule the world. They say that if you are always sweet, attentive, good to others you will be rewarded but the rewards go to the jerks. Life is fair but the people are making a mess of it and love to break others down. You can't blame life itself for that only yourself that you accept others to do that to you. So if you don't agree with something say so. If you think you deserve a better income ask for it!

I don`t think life is fair. Not when we look at it as individuals or as a species. Predators feed on weaker animals. The weaker ones might think life is not fair. Children are dying every day because they don`t have to eat or drink. But Imagine if everyone who is born survives... we already have problems with overpopulation on earth.
