life
is
not fair
or
equal
For no matter how you look at it, life is not fair or equal. It never was, still isn’t and never will be . The sooner we all except this, the better life will be for all of us. Life is highly competitive and if we teach our children that they will not have to compete, that they will be treated the same as everyone else, then they are in for a very rude awakening.
Life is a competition by design. We compete for everything – even sexual partners. Therefore those of us who fail to compete effectively, will be eliminated from the gene pool. We were not all created with an equal opportunity to compete. Not everyone can win. You must work hard, and fight for your share.
Only 10% of the world population has access to computers. If life was fair or equal, you would most likely not have a computer and therefore would not be reading this. Be grateful that you are one of the privileged.
One last thing: Life is not fair or equal in relationships of love. There is only one directive: love her unconditionally. It's not about you, it's about her.
We live in
Springfield, MO and it has been our home now for over 10 years
and will be until our kids are grown and gone.
The James River is a half mile down the road and is a great place to hunt crawdads, shells and canoe. Thanks to my mom and dad we have the perfect canoe for our family adventures on the river.
