It's very true that life is unfair at some point or another. I can't explain why to you as I don't have the answer myself. However, I can tell you that every experience that I felt was unfair has taught me a lesson in life. It may be that I'm thinking too much about myself and not enough about others. It may be that what I thought was unfair turned out to be a blessing in disguise. It may be that what I want and what I need are two very different things.
This is confusing so I'll give an example......
When my eldest was a baby and I was searching for a home to buy, it took a long time to find a house I would be happy with. Finally, the perfect, huge, old-fashioned home of my dreams was shown to me and it was in my price range! Ten minutes before I put in a full price offer for the house, someone else did too. I didn't get the house. I was crushed and bought a much smaller home for me and my young son. That winter was one of the worst I'de ever seen in my lifetime. There was very little snow to insullate the ground and water pipes burst all over the city. It was bitter cold and people with large homes were paying $400 to $600 a month to heat those beautiful old homes. If I had puchased that huge house, there is no way I would have been able to keep up the payments and heat the home as well. My son and I got through that winter just fine only having to let our water trickle all the time to keep the pipes from freezing. You see, what I wanted and what I needed were two different things.
Sorry this was so long and sorry if I bored you. I hope this answer helped you in some small way. I hope you find the answer you are looking for. :)

Yes the live can be so unfair!Trust me i saw this side of life.The conclusion=there are two things you can do.First sit and cry and lose your time asking why some other people are more rich,more happy,more luck,more......Or take your life and your luck at your hand and try to do the best you can about this.Even if the end it will not be as you wait you will have the satisfaction that you try and don't give up.

Life is not fair, luck is nothing more than a series of chance happenings or opportunities and what we choose to do with them!

i always say to myself those lines...LIFE IS UNFAIR..but i also believe that we are the ones responsible for our lives. so whenever i say life is unfair, i also say that i failed myself. you see, it is our decisions that makes our life. it is us who draw our future and destiny. let's just do our best so that's we'll see life as beautiful as we want it to be..
