Everyone knows that at times, life can be very unfair. Even if we are blessed with many good things and are grateful for a good part of our lives, there will always be aspects of life that cause us to realize how unfair life can really be.if you had to choose the one or several things in your life that "mostly" causes you to realize the unfairness in life what would that be? and why do you feel this way?

I didn't have to think long and hard about this one. My lifelong struggle with weight is the thing that I consider the most unfair. I'm a faithful exerciser and I try to eat right but my body is unforgiving. If I eat something that I shouldn't or eat a little too much, it shows on the scale the very next day.

it sounds like you have a very slow metabolism. have you seen a doctor concerning your inability to lose weight? if you're exercising regularly and eating right this may very well be the case. Some people find it very hard to lose weight, no matter what they do a doctor may be able to recommend a diet that will work for you or precscribe something to help you lose the weight.

Yes, I have seen a doctor. Part of it is the natural slow down that occurs as we age and the second piece of it is a sluggish thyroid..not bad enough for medication just treated with diet. I can lose weight but it requires that I am strict with a diet and it comes off very slowly.

What I find unfair, those who used to make me suffer, caused me a lot of loss and those who betrayed me are now living a good life while I am stuck inside my home clinging on to life. I find it unfair that the bad guys run the world. I find it unfair that how the dysfunctional educational system is being followed. I find it unfair that I cannot get my revenge.

When you say "clinging to life", what do you mean by this? i will understand if you rather not explain this but clinging to life is a very serious statement and could practicaly mean someone is dying which i sincerely hope you did not mean by that statement. as far as the other things you mentioned, i hear you loud and clear

I was once done a very terrible mistake. I lied to the public about my ability. It made me famous, but after I admitted that I lied, people started to judge me. Some were good, some were bad.
I know that it would be my consequence and responsibility, but sometimes I felt unfair when people who judge me badly never stop mocking at me, never stop punishing me, and never stop bringing me down.
I've tried my best to ask for forgiveness and will try to fix what I have done, but those people keep on coming, and it seems like I am not allowed to do a single mistake.
But now it is better. I am starting to see that unfairness as fairness, when I can accept it, and the only being knows that I want to fix my mistake and be better is ... God.

i don't know what your "terrible" mistake was, but, if you caused hurt or pain to other people,it will take some time for them to forgive whatever it was you did. As for anyone else mocking you or judging you, i would pay them no mind , since there are people in this world who like nothing better than to see someone suffer for their mistakes and in my opinion they're not worth caring about.and as you mentioned, the ultimate judge of us all is who really matters when it comes to our mistakes and sins.

As for me, I really feel that my Mother and the rest of my Relatives were UNFAIR to me because they never gave me the chance to know and meet my Real Father. They all kept it from me for so many, many years and I only knew of my real identity when I was already turning 40years old. And, what's worse is my Mother didn't talk to me personally about it, she just wrote me a letter and only to find out that my Real Father passed away already many years back. I don't even know how he looks like because my Mother refuses to let me know more about my Real Father. I understand that her past with my real father wasn't good, but I've got nothing to do with it and it was definitely not my fault. It really HURTS me so much and I really feel so INCOMPLETE...it's so UNFAIR!!!

I will definitely say my career is the most saddest part of my life.I havent attained any big success till yet.I did MBA and then I got married.I was never overambitious but God didnt gave me a chance to be ambitious even.After marriage I feel I will not be able to handle job and home so Iam not working.Also I Gave company secreatries exam befor MBA I failed in that.I wanted to opt best college of Mba in my state but again inspite of my hardwork I could not make to the top college and ended up with small college.Iam passionate about writing and now atleast I wish God to be with me because Iam doing lots of writing work on different sites to make career in writing.I want to write a book.I have written previously also but it was just for family and friends.I have lost lots of self confidence due to continuous setbacks in my career.I know Iam very capable but destiny has been unjust to me.Wish with love nad support of my hubby and family members I gain my passion and success.Iam doing very good as daughter in law and wife and very happy but somewhere or the other the poor career pinches me.Wish its now an end and a new beginning..

For now I feel that life is unfair for me when it comes to having a good and stable job. It's been 7 months and until now I don't have any calls that tells me I'm hired or something I've passed the exam or interview. I'm just so sad.

So sorry to hear this. i'm just amazed how many people, even right here on Mylot who are going through the same thing you are. I know this doesn't help you feel any better and i can only hope this job market turns around and people like you and others stop having to live in fear and worry.Good luck to you.
