Life is Fair...

One of the things Maria Shriver mentions in her book “Ten Things I Wish I Had Known Before Going Into The Real World” is that life isn’t fair…

We see around us, many times the bad guy wins, a very good person dies early, a corrupt politician wins the election and lives a very long life though he indulged in dirty politics which never did any good to anyone, some people work very hard and still don’t get the returns they deserve. So it seems “life isn’t fair”.

But actually life is fair. It seems unfair because we always look at it from the same angle. You would say the bad guy won, but how can you be sure that he is bad? Maybe he isn’t bad and you don’t know him completely or maybe the win was an invitation to new problems for him. You don’t know the inside story.

As far as the corrupt politician is concerned you only know about his professional life, you know him only through what media wrote about him or what you heard from others. His family life might be on rocks. He might be having all possible differences with his near and dear ones and believe me nothing is worse than that. His long life is a curse for him.

I just gave two examples to you. If you observe carefully, the lives of your family and friends around you, you will surely find many such examples which will prove that life isn’t unfair. So don’t ever be evil.

Life is fair…
