It's all in how you view it. Things happen and we ask or wonder why. Sometimes we spend too much time in our self pity. \n\nOne thing I do is evaluate my life and I realize that if the things happened to me didn't happen, I wouldn't be where I am right now. \n\nWe grow through our experiences if we allow it and we can use them as stepping stones rather than stumbling blocks\n\nChin up! Smile and remember someone else out there is worse off than you are.

Thats a good question, life can sometimes be good. But other times it just sucks. LIfe isn't fair but it has its perks. I may seem like one of those sit in the corner hating life cutting her wrists girl to alot of people, but i really am not at least most of the time. I think life shouldn't be wasted trying to fit in. I do my best to stand out. I'm not popular and i'm perfectly happy with it. I have a group of freinds and i know that most of them are my real freinds because they accept me for who I am. Life doesn't suck unless you want it to suck. All those people who are doing drugs and drinking are wasting their lives away. Their future is nothing unless they focus on school. I am happy with the way i am, usually. I don't fit in, i don't do drugs, i do well in school, and i like to have good times with my friends. The best days of my life are the days where i just get to do something with my friends.....headbanging at a concert or just hanging out walking around outside. Those times are what makes life worth living.

you need to settle down during times of frustration and consider a long view of life, you need to concentrate on the good things you have in life, you need to stop thinking that everything should go your way all the time\n\nlife is not like that, most people do not get their way even 50% of the time\n\nthink about this:\n\nyou are not a starving child in the deserts of africa, it could be a lot worse\n\nyou probably have a decent job, air conditioning, a vehicle that can take you anyplace you want to go, at the least some sort of family or friend emotional support system, and you live in a country that is very rich

Nope. It's perfectly fair. Sometimes you win, sometimes you lose. You have ups and downs but it all evens out in the end.\n\n"Everything happens for a reason."\n\nChin up!

maybe because we have lack of knowledge to encounter some hardships and trials. but not all the time a life goes like that. as it is said, life is full of instances, sometimes you're up...sometimes you're down. enjoy your life and valued every failure and success you may encounter

well of course it's not. who ever said it would be lied to you. this age old whine of "it's not fair" usually comes from folks who are too nice.... they give up things or do things for others so much they usually find themselves with the shorter end of the stick. suggestion, take whatever you can get, dont stick your neck out to far or too frequently and remeber to worry about your own interests once in a while. let somebody else come in last place or lose out on opportunities because you were quicker... stop being so nice. it's a cut throat world.

First, don't dwell on the negatives in life. There are so many little blessings in life that so many people overlook. I am also a Christian, so I also have the comfort that God is control, and He makes no mistakes. God gives us trials in our lives to draw us closer to Him, and God would not give us a trial that we do not have the strength to overcome. Hang in there, and just look on the better side of life.

Life is unfair.  The more you have to think and decide - the more you get paid.  What you say is 100% true if you measure work in terms of physical effort.  This is why Bill Gates and Warren Buffet are so rich - they use their minds - not their good looks or muscles.

welcome to life.  Not all people are equal and life isn't fair.

We are each unique individuals. Life isn't only about comparisons. Do your best with your goals and don't compare yourself to others. I really don't think it's that big of a deal.

Its just part of life....not worth worrying about, thats for sure...usually though, theres is a reason why it doesn't work out...so just live and be happy and appreciate all the great things that life does have to offer.

My life has never been perfect (even till now). Ups and downs and sideways, too. But the essence of life is how you live it during the good times and , unfortunately, during the bad times, too. So all of those bad things I charge to experience and hope that I don't trip over the same rock twice. And for the good things, keep on coming.\n\nMost of those who reply to this question so far say that they should have done better in elementary or high school or college. Right answers. There are no wrong answers. But come to think of it, don't you guys feel that your misses and "mistakes" have helped you to grow stronger and better equipped to face more challenges? What do you think?

Yeah I know how you feel. I mean life be it may pointless, we are stuck with it. If you take your own life (DO NOT ATTEMP) then what you are waiting for is a whole different endless life. So try to suck it up, go with the flow.

I am not sure but in my own belief, it is not life that is not fair, it is the circumstances that surround our lives that is not fair. Two people could have the same thing happen to them and it turn out different according to circumstances surrounding our own lives. Therefore we have to make the best of what we can when we can. We can not allow circumstances to overpower our own will. If that makes any sense? And as for some people being bad, I believe that all people are good to some extent but sometimes things that happen to us make it appear that we are bad. And that this bad is what helps some people to get through things that have hurt them in some way. So they take it out on others to protect themselves. But I believe that even the good can sometimes be bad but it doesn't mean that we are all bad. No one is all good nor all bad. If we were we would not need the cycle of life and death?

Because life just isn't fair.  It seems that the slackers of the world do get the most help.  And it ticks me off, too!  Hang in there.....

No one can do everything wrong all the time. You are berating yourself.Try to be more optimistic.
