Perspective: Get Used To It Or Make It Fair

***Life isn't fair and expect the worse.*** That's what my cousin told her daughter when I overheard their conversation. My niece replied, '***But we can make it fair, right? Then it could be better.'*** They have two opposing perspectives and I must say I believe in each but it depends on the circumstance I am experiencing. When I experience something good therefore I say, ***Wow! I am living the best life***, then when something bad happens, I'll switch to ***Life is so unfair!*** I don't know about you but when I was a kid, I was taught that ***life consists of everything good and fair***. I should be honest, and nice, and generous, and polite. I should respect the elders. I should show compassion. I must share what I have with those who are in need or else I'm selfish. I should help whenever there's a chance to help. The world offers kindness and perfection. Maybe that's why I myself has this kind of trait, being perfectionist in some sort. There are also times when I was being presented that life is unfair and ugly - knowing the story of villains in movies and books, the crimes, the injustices taught me this. **Which one should I believe in? Was life really fair or should we get used to it?** Life is not fair in a million ways. We can state a lot of examples why life is unfair for you, for me, and for them but I believe there's a chance for it to be fair. I love watching crime stories. When my mom and dad permit me to go outside and play, I either read books or watch crime stories because my father likes to watch them too. Until now, I still watch documentaries and crime stories, either solved or unresolved. Analyzing each story, I realized life isn't fair. A family that was just taking a vacation then the next day their kid was abducted. It was cruel. But here's the thing, they worked really hard after those experiences - to get the laws enacted, to solve the mysteries, ***to make life fair for others even for them it is not***. In these circumstances, I believe there's a chance for it to be fair. There are people who are willing to make it fair for all of us, isn't it nice? ***Life isn't fair because people make it so***, do you agree? If people can make it unfair, we can also do the opposite. Even if at times I do think life is unfair, what are you going to do about it? Would you just utter the words ***'***get used to it' or you'll make it fair? ***We are people, we are able to make it fair, so be it. Let's do our best.*** Hold on to that childhood belief that life can be better even if it looks bad right now. I hope the world will continue to be as good as my niece believes it to be.
