     A friend of mine,in response to a conversation we were having about the injustices of life,
asked me the question,"Who said life was going to be fair,or that it was even meant to be fair
?" Her question was a good one.It reminded me of something I  was taught as a youngster:life
isn't fair.It's a disappointment,but it's absolutely true.One of the mistakes many of us make is
that we feel sorry for ourselves,or for others,thinking that life should be fair,or that someday
it will be.It's not and it won't be.
     One of the nice things about surrendering (屈从) to the fact that life isn't fair is that it keeps
us from feeling sorry for ourselves by encouraging us to do the very best we can with what we
have.We know it's not "life's job" to make everything perfect:it's our own challenge.Surrendering
to this fact also keeps us from feeling sorry for others because we are reminded that everyone is
dealt a different hand;everyone has unique strengths and problems in the process of growing up,
facing the reality and making decisions;and everyone has those times that they feel unfairly treated.
     The fact that life isn't fair doesn't mean we shouldn't do everything in our power to improve our
own lives or the world as a whole.To the contrary,it suggests that we should.When we don't recognize
or admit that life isn't fair,we tend to feel pity for others and for ourselves.Pity,of course,is a selfdefeating
emotion that does nothing for anyone,except to make everyone feel worse than they already do.When
we do recognize that life isn't fair,however,we feel compassion (热情) for others and for ourselves.And
compassion is a heartfelt emotion that delivers lovingkindness to everyone it touches.The next time you
find yourself thinking about the injustices of the world,try reminding yourself of this very basic fact.You
may be surprised that it can make you out of selfpity and into helpful action.
