Why life is Unfair?

Sometimes we look around and ask, “Why is life so unfair?”

You work hard, you try your best, but still, things don’t go your way. Meanwhile, other people seem to get everything so easily. Some are born rich, while others have to fight just to survive. Good people suffer, and bad people get lucky. It doesn’t make sense and it hurts.

But that’s how life is. It’s not always fair. And no matter how much we wish it was, we can't control everything that happens.

I remember one time, I studied really hard for an exam I needed to pass. I barely slept, I gave my all but I still didn’t get the grade I hoped for. Meanwhile, someone else who didn’t even review much passed easily. It felt so unfair. I cried. I questioned if trying even mattered. But later on, I realized that experience taught me something more valuable: how to stand back up, how to believe in myself even when things go wrong.

Even though life is unfair, it teaches us something. It helps us become stronger. It makes us learn how to keep going, even when everything feels hard. The pain, the struggles, they shape who we are. They teach us to be kind, to be patient, and to understand others better.

Yes, it’s okay to feel sad, angry, or tired when things aren’t fair. We’re human. But don’t lose hope. Sometimes the hard moments lead to something better, even if we can’t see it right away.

So remember, life isn’t fair but you are strong. And that strength? That’s what will carry you forward.
