Life is unfair

Who said life is fair ? Life is unfair and get used to it. These are famous words by Bill Gates,owner of Microsoft.

When we see ourselves as victims, we become caught in our circumstance whether it be a past or present experience. Our natural response to negative situations is anger.The fact is that we live in a sinful world. However, problems arise when we see life from an unfair perspective.We feel bad; therefore, we try to find things to compensate for the bad feelings.
Yes, there are injustices. Guiltless people are sent to prison. Terrorists make plans to strike at innocent citizens. Medals and Awards are presented for political reasons instead of merit. To rise up and fight against these and other forms of inequity is not only proper, but ennobling.

If we catch ourselves harbouring unjustified thoughts that the world is unfair, it’s time to change our views. Why? Because such views are unproductive. They are self-defeating.
