题目内容
16.A friend of mine,in response to a conversation we were having about the injustices of life,asked me the question:"Who said life was going to be fair,or that it was even meant to be fair?"Her question was a good one.It reminded me of something I was taught as a youngster-life isn't fair.One of the mistakes many of us make is that we feel sorry for ourselves or for others,thinking that life should be fair or that someday it will be.It's not and it won't.One of the nice things about accepting the fact that life isn't fair is that it keeps us from feeling sorry for ourselves by encouraging us to do the very best we can with what we have.Accepting this fact also keeps us from feeling sorry for others because we are reminded that everyone is dealt a different hand; everyone has unique strengths and problems in the process of growing up,facing the reality and making decisions,and everyone has those times that they feel wounded or unfairly treated.
The fact that life isn't fair doesn't mean we shouldn't do everything in our power to improve our own lives or the world as a whole.On the contrary,it suggests that we should.When we don't recognize or admit life isn't fair,we tend to feel pity for others and for ourselves,a self-defeating emotion that does nothing except make everyone feel worse.When we do recognize life isn't fair,however,we feel sympathy for others and for ourselves.And sympathy is a heartfelt emotion that delivers loving kindness to everyone it touches.The next time you find yourself thinking about the injustices of the world,try reminding yourself of this very basic fact.You may be surprised that it can push you out of self-pity and into helpful action.
