Why live with something if it makes you unhappy? If you can fix it with as little reprcussions as possible, then do so. I believe you should fight for what is important to you and for what you believe in, but not to the point where you destroy your life or anyone elses.

If anyone ever told you that life was fair they lied.

If it were fair we all would have plenty of money and not in danger of all the things life can bring.

So what do we do about it. First we must truly understand that life just is. It's how we view it that makes all the difference.

We may be poor and look at people that seem to have everything and wonder why them and not me. What we fail to see is what they did to achieve it that we did not.

Where we go in life all starts from our beginning. If we are fortunate enough to have parents that love us and guide us we more than likely we be successful, at least in however we define that. If we are not fortunate and have no real guidance then it is up to us to find the way. Some do...others don't.

Everything however revolves around one thing. Confidence and optimism. If you have both you have everything. And fairness is an allusion. For there are people who barely are able to make it financially but have a loving family that because of them are happy. Others have more money than they ever will spend but have little or no love in their life because of their devotion to getting all that money. And they are not happy at all. So who is successful here and what is fair about this.

The only thing that is truly unfair in this world is poor health. Every thing else is up to us as to how we view it.

My dictionary defines the word fair as "marked by impartiality and honesty: free from self-interest, prejudice, or favoritism". These are qualities of people, not life. You shouldn't expect other people to favor YOUR self-interest over their own, so don't take it personally when it happens. If you stick up for yourself and be persistent you can make life what you want. I also suggest reading the books How to Win Friends and Influence People, by Dale Carnegie, and Looking Out for #1 by Robert Ringer. I found both of these to be very helpful.

Life is neither fair nor unfair. It just is what it is and those who make the best of it find that they are usually content with most aspects of life.

Who said life is meant to be fair? Fairness is applied to sports and games using rules as guidelines to equal each participant's odds of winning. Life is not a game. There should be no competition involved - each one of us lives with what we are given and our life reflects how well we use what we have.

You need to deal with it by living your life. Try to be a little more optimistic. Life is what you make it
Those who turn out the best, are those who make the best out of how things turn out

there is no fair or unfair, karma is the answer. Try to encrease your spiritual intelligence. It is a personal process. There rest will come for it self.

of course you can't make all of life fair but why not try with the little things? It never hurts to try does it?

I really am not sure what you would do to make life "fairer". I think it is important to take life as it comes and to always react in a positive manner. People who want to be victims of life circumstances will be victims. People who deal with life's adversities by learning, coping, and moving on fare much better in my opinion.

If you live a life and you're not trying to make it better that life has no point to it...
