I want you to repeat after me at the count of three. 1,2,3….. LIFE IS NOT FAIR.

On our short pilgrimage through life it’s one thing I want you to always remember: Life is not fair.

Many times we get this self pity Charlie Brown attitude, ”Why is everybody always picking on me?”
Life is not setup in such a way for you to gracefully waltz through it. It has its mountain tops, it has its valleys and it has its plains. Your mountain top experiences are merely just breaks that you would get from the valleys and the plains.

The next time you find yourself in a tough situation, how would you approach it? Would you stand there and complain? Or would you look at it like it’s an opportunity for growth? I would certainly like to advise you to look at it as an opportunity for growth because, life is not fair.

Take your eyes off of the people around that seem to be moving forward and focus on your own growth.
They’ve not gotten to where they are because they’re exempt from “growing pains” they’ve had their fair share, and believe me they are still dealing with some of it. It would never stop.

Life was not designed to be without turbulence. Every one has it. You might say, If I could only have that million dollars, I’ll be fine. Don’t look too far, just read the tabloids, how many with lots of money is just wasting their lives away. Mainly because they have some underlying problem. (Their own growing pain)

Another might say, if I could only marry that guy I would be fine. You might or might not be happy but the husband that you moved heaven and earth to have is the same person punching the daylights out of you.

And so I can go on and on.

Success is not money or a big house, for it might very well be a big house and not a home. Success is being able to overcome this obstacle course called life. Every challenge you overcome, you mature a little, but don’t celebrate for too long be it known there is another challenge somewhere close up ahead. It doesn’t necessarily have to be a huge challenge as they come in all sizes but they do come.

Life is not fair……however,

Be Blessed,
