Life is unfair


My boys always say "Not fair! Tang lao shi is not fair!" I never had an answer for these little ones. I always tell them, "This is true. Life is unfair." 


This verse has been in my mind lately when I prayed. 

"He causes his sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the righteous and the unrighteous." Matt 5:45 

I learnt a point from this. 在人的眼中,的确是不公平,但在上帝的眼中,所人如果没有敬拜他,这和不义的人有什么分别?这可是同样悲哀。因此,上帝还是会把雨降在不义的人身上。

最近,我有别的想法。Yes life is never fair in our eyes. But it is the unfair paths which give people we love a second chance. Sometimes, it is us who need the second chance. I will be very sad if God takes away my brother's life. 我希望他受到惩罚,同,我也希望上帝是怜的,留他一条出路,好他有悔改的一天。

This, is the most haunting yet beautiful irony in life. 
Life is unfair.
