Why are some people so rich it makes my skin scrawl and all they do half the time is happen to be born into a rich family?
Then why are people born like destitutes in war-raging Africa.
Life's unfair. I don't get how God decides who's born where.

Trust me...everyone gets their share at the end of the game....
Those with much, and nothing to do, are purposless, frustrated and unhappy. Those who don't use what they have, will later not be renowned in life; Those with more, are expected of more.
Those with nothing, and excrutiating work to survive, are suffering...But every simpe accomplishment they do, they feel happiness. Their expectations from them are low, when they surprass, they are boundless and happy.
Therefore, the amount of effort for happiness is the same. Although one may suffer more physically--they both suffer equally when you take into account the inside suffering of purposelessness, and the suffering of carnal matter; Both, become used to these things in time...not making either more intense. God's craft in not making us all the same and boring, yet making things different, but at the same time, fair, is truelly a mathematical titanic marvel.
God does not have to be a concious entity. It can be a process. But the process is good, beautiful and the neural hardwiring of nature, pointed toward the only fated path...the one of justice.

Yes life is unfair. Some people are born with advantages & others with disadvantages. We can't help where we're born but we can choose where we end up. All we can do is work with the resources (talents etc) that we're given & hope for the best. Riches in this world are nothing compared with riches in the afterlife. Those who are poor here will be rich in Heaven. So it does even out eventually...Don't envy the wealthy. They have their own problems. Ironically sometimes they're more unhappy than the rest of us & they have more money to get themselves into trouble (using drugs etc.) The key is to love yourself & be happy with what you have, then you are better off than the majority of people. A lot of rich people hate themselves. They think that owning a lot of things will make them happy, but if there is a void in your soul then all the treasures in the world won't fill it. They will just make you feel more empty...Life may seem easy for some people on the surface, but you never know what sorrows they deal with underneath. Money can't really buy happiness. It can only enhance your life if you already like who you are.

I don't think people decide where to be born, nor does God. Free will happens and the people on this earth are the decision makers. Power is a true force in the world and a few people know how to grab it and manipulate it. You need to think a little deeper about this.

Yeah, I despise the rich teenagers driving a BMW or Lexus that cut me off or ride my bum. Why don't I hear about a rich family giving away half their millions to a poor country? Instead you hear about how the rich buy more things, huge boats, and mansions. Oh wait I know of one. Oprah... but then again she wasnt born into it.

Your skin "scrawls?" Children are born wherever people have sex, some are poor some are not

God doesn't decides who's born where, stuff just happen like that. You just got to learn to accept it

God has nothing to do with it Em.
We chose the life situation that will have the greatest potential for spiritual advancement.
Hard to believe sometimes that we asked for what we are getting but I believe its true.
Love and blessings Don
