Is life fair? why or why not?

Answer 1

sometimes but probably is as fair as it will get.

Answer 2

Life is not always fair... most of the time it is not... its a trail and error thing more then anything at all. I consider everything that happens to me or around me a test of wills per say. I talk it all with a grain of salt..... To me life is only fair to those that are mean and rude, justice never comes to the good quickly so the mean and rude people get off and take along time to get what they deserve. But in the long run they do get what is coming to them eventually... it just takes time and when that time comes it hits them 20 time worse then what ever they have done to you or to anyone else for that matter. Things always happen for a reason wither its dealing with people or everyday things we deal with. However it is up to you how you handle it.. if you want to come out on top then consider all your options before reacting ..... above all stay calm and relaxed while you think and go over the event in your head. wait to react what ever your decision is until the following day this give you time to calm down more and also gives you more time to consider your options more thoroughly and go over it to yourself in your head. You always want to be the better person above all.... you never know if you will ever have to answer for your actions later in life or beyond life.

Answer 3

No - life is not fair because no matter what, everyone wants more than the other guy. Everyone is treated differently, everyone makes different amounts of money which is rarely related to intelligence or educational background. There are a million other reasons why life is not fair.

Answer 4

Life is BEAUTIFUL. The way it is. People usually feel discomfort only when there is a mis-match with their expectations. Those who learn to take it as it comes, realise that any other way would have been less beautiful, and would not exchange the experience for anything what-so-ever ! It is the level of awareness that decides the quality of life, fairness and unfair are mere comparisons, with very little relevance, since, what can u compare life with?

Answer 5

Depends on which life you are referring to - mortal life or eternal life. This mortal life is not always fair, but God's judgements are. In this life, we are each born into various circumstances and conditions. It is how we handle those circumstances and deal with our conditions that shape our lives and our destinies. Some rise from the depths of poverty to the heights of success and enlightenment. Some may begin with wealth and prosperity, only to use it all for evil purposes, or just waste it away on worldly pleasures. What is important to focus on is what we do with what we have been given in this life. And when the relatively short span of this life is over, we will be judged by Christ with a fair judgement that will take all of our conditions and circumstances into account, and considers what we did with the talents and opportunities we were blessed with, whether great or small. Then, based on this judgement, we will be either exhaulted or limited with respect to our opportunities in the eternities. It is then that we will fully realize how insignificant the inequities of this life are when compared to our eternal potential and opportunities.

Answer 7

My sister has a liver disease. I have hair loss. My dad has high cholesterol and heart and back problems. My mother has to deal with all this. According to all the problems in my family, no, life is not fair. But I try to hold my head high and think of the positive side. Life isn't about fairness. It is about achieving your goals and doing the best you can doing what you enjoy and love the most. My sister wants to help the poor people in Africa who are homeless, or help make peace in this world. She hates war just as much as I do, and both she and I have a strong grudge (that will last forever) on racism. Both of us want to do something about wars, to stop violence and to help people who need it. My sister's own words were, "I dont care about myself. I care about the others who really need help."
So life isn't fair. Deal with it! Most of you should be grateful because you probably arent the poor people in this world who are homeless, need food and shelter, and try to live life begging and getting help from people who are nice enough to help them. You should be grateful. You have food, shelter, and good clothes and school/college/work.
Life isn't fair. Let's leave it at that.

Answer 8

Most times no. I couldn't tell you why it is or isn't. Maybe it is fair, but a lot of times it seems like our peers have it so much easier/better when it comes to achievements, looks, money, whatever, but then the other guy may think the same thing about you and your life. . . . something like the grass is always greener on the other side of the fence, but we don't really know what is going on in other people's lives.

Answer 9

Life can not be fair because there are things that happen that aren't reasonable, at least to you. Life is more fair because it gives us so many reasons to really live it.

Answer 10

Life is as fair as you want it to be. If you look at life with optimism and an open mind, you will learn in time to see the silver lining in everything! As the Rolling Stones say, You can't always get what you want, but if you try sometimes, you'll find, you get what you need! :~)

Answer 11

Hopefully it will all work out in the end but it really doesnt seem like it does it, I mean you cant just look at your own things when answering a question like this, The whole world does not seem fair ,does it ?
