Life Is Not Always Fair

Life is not always fair and neither are people, which includes you and me. Sometimes we are taken advantage of. Sometimes we do all the right things and we still end up losing. Sometimes people, who we love and trust, hurt us with their words or deeds, even after we have unconditionally loved and supported them for years. Sometimes our good intentions are unappreciated and or misinterpreted. Our challenge is to grieve this unfairness, which requires us to do deep psycho-spiritual work. It is very challenging to not retaliate against those who have hurt or cheated us. Only a Self-mastered adult can own the unalterable Law that Life is not always fair. You win some and you lose some this is just the way it is on the earth plane. You can accept that or you can spend your life fighting your way up stream against the flow of life. The choice is yours.

You are absolutely right. I see this all the time. It is just something that we accept even though it is so hard.
