“You know, I used to think it was awful that life was so unfair. Then I thought, wouldn’t it be much worse if life were fair, and all the terrible things that happen to us come because we actually deserve them? So, now I take great comfort in the general hostility and unfairness of the universe.”
Life is eminently fair in its randomness.All you have to do is make good choices and be a survivor.It’s only unfair to those who make poor choices and want something for nothing.
My late father once told me, when I challenged a decision of his as being unfair, “Son, ‘fair’ is a four letter word beginning with an F that should never be used in polite company.”
As Jack Kornfield once wrote, “Ypu can’t stop the waves, but you can learn to surf.” One of my favorite lines, and brilliant advice for those who would like to even the odds!

Life is unfair alright; if the 2016 election went another way, there would have been a taco truck on every corner.

Aren’t orchids hard to grow? Wouldn’t it make sense to have them come from something easier to grow?
As for a nachos tree, you’d only get them for a couple of weeks during the fall, and have to eat them all before they go stale.

On the other hand, parking under a nacho tree would be very messy!

I remember learning that song in fourth grade — only it was “peppermint trees,” not “cigarette trees.”

That’s one of the first lessons I taught my kids – life is not fair………..and not everything I cook has mushrooms in it.

Life is neither fair or unfair, it just is. We assign those labels to help us cope with it.

Is goat using “fair” in the sense of “just” or just “even-handed”? I would argue life is fair in the latter sense but not in the former.

Only a fool or leftist (redundant) could think life could ever be fair.
