Life is unfair

I really doubt it. Many people have this complaint where they think they have been handed the wrong end of the stick. "Life is so unfair," they say, "Look at him, he is so handsome and has plenty of money all because life gave him a gift of the gab." Just quit whining and suck it up is what I have to say. Life is not unfair. One has to realise that life has given everybody something desirable and some people have more of it that others. You just have to discover what it is that life gave you over others and try and build on that. Think for a moment, we all have strengths and weaknesses and we all wish we had certain strengths that others have and certain weaknesses that we wish we didn't have. One person may have a natural predisposition towards abstract ideas and the other maybe more practical. The person who is practical may wish he was more of an abstract thinker but that is not that case, so whining about it won't help him. Rather than saying life has been unfair because he did not get something he desired he should see that life has been totally fair to him. What is his gift is not the other person's. There must be one person out there who wished they had a more practical approach to problems. So you see life is not at all unfair. We all have certain qualities that are desirable by others and qualities we desire that are in others. Life is fair.
