Answer 1

Yes, life is unfair and it starts at birth. For example, some people are born rich or with emotionally nurturing parents, while some are born with fetal alcohol syndrome or with pedophiles for parents. Moreover, people's first impressions of you are often based on things you don't choose, such as your attractiveness, height, tone of voice, race etc. Parents play favorites, even though most wont admit it. Employers will often hire friends and acquaintances over more qualified applicants. Death can befall you at any unexpected time. And the list goes on and on. There are millions of examples of life being unfair and very little evidence to the contrary.

Answer 2

Sometimes life isn't unfair and sometimes it is.Its hard to take some things life throws at you.Remember what they say What Goes Around Comes Around.Life may be not fair sometimes but its how God is making a plan for your life.When life isn't fair do your best to take whats turning that into Gods Plan for your life.It might not be a 1 on 1 time you would want but it is for Gods plan.God will be there for you no matter what.When life is unfair just go threw it and follow God.It will be over before you know it and later you will see that your being a really good person.When life gives you lemon's take them and take a try at life being unfair but it will help you later on in life.I promise.I hope this helps! Good Luck on your unfair life if it is.Heres my friends tip and she dont have a yahoo answer:

First let me say how sorry I am that you are having such a hard time of it right now. That can be such a stressfull thing in anyone's life and make our outlook on life worse than it really is.

From an older person's point of view...yes life does SEEM unfair! I know you don't want to hear this or you have already heard it ...BUT life does go on. There have been a few times in my life when I thought "why was I ever born"! I had a very abusive first marriage that only lasted 6 months (thank goodness or I would have been dead). So it does happen to all.

The only thing to do is to hold up and head and keep on going. That's what I did. It did take a while, I thought it was my fault. But when I finally realized it was not then my life started all over again.

So be re-born in yourself and start your life all over. You will have learned from your experiences(I know I did) and gained from time.

Good luck and God bless! Have a wonderful and better future, because YOUR FUTURE is out there.

Answer 4

I tell you what life has been very unfair to me!! When I was 4 years old my mom shot my dad when I was in the bath tube. But It has also been very fair to me! Since then I have found the Lord Got filled with the Holy Ghost and Praising God every since and I know that if that awful thing would have not happened I would not be saved today! So life can be both fair and unfair!

Answer 5

Life seems unfair at times, but things always work out for the best in the long run. Keep the faith and a smile on your face. Life will get better... until the next time you get knocked on your A**. Life is a series of ups and downs, enjoy the ride.

Answer 6

Yes and no. There's a lot of checks and balances. There's good and bad in everybody's life. It's important to roll with the punches and be thankful for your blessings. Those little ones really add up!
My daughter has some really serious obstacles. I told her, "I honestly believe that everybody is given a blessing in the midst of their struggles. You just might have to look for it." I don't think that comes from the Bible or any other religion; I just get that from experience in real life.
Would love to hear your beliefs when you're done with this! I hope you'll comment. :)

Answer 7

For most people yes, even though it also depends on how negatively you look at it. I say one should always look at every thing with a positive perspective (obviously there are some exceptions: death, war, etc). Unfortunately, for most of us, things aren't how we would want them to be, while for others great things come up in their lives without any effort from them. But like i said, the only way to make things better in our lives, is to be positive and make the best out of life.

Answer 8

Absolutely. You have to do things that you can control to increase your chances of things working out in your and your loved one's best interest, and more largely the interest of all of mankind. Accept that you can't control everything.

Everyone is different; situations are varied; timing effects outcomes. If you are looking for things to be fair, that - in my opinion - can often be a waste of time.

I look at people who have overcome a ridiculous amount of adversity and accomplished alot. Was it fair that Lance Armstrong got cancer? Was it fair that he beat cancer? Was it fair to the french that he won 7 consecutive tour de frances? Was he playing fair? Is it fair that he's accused of taking steroids to win? If people take steroids even though it's illegal in sports, is it only fair that you take steroids to stay competitive?...Anyway, we can play the "fair" game all day.

Life's not fair, but if you use your intelligence, you're honest, you're persistent, you work hard, you treat people generously, you work well independently, but also can help drive teams... things start to stack up in your favor and chances are that life will treat you well. Sounds fair to me.

Answer 9

Yes-sir-ree. Sometimes. If not, then it sure feels that way at times. But remember this........I beleive everything happenes for a reason. Reasons that we dont understand at the time, and maybe never will. When things dont go as planned, try to know.........it is happening exactly as it is supposed to, or it wouldnt be happening. Live. Learn. Love.
Peace.

Answer 10

From a personal point of view it's unfair. But I suspect it all balances out in the end, whatever that is.

What difference does it make?
