The world, as pessimists love to remind us all, is full of things that 'just aren't fair'. So, does that mean that some people get all the happiness while others get all the misery? Not really. Not quite. More or less, give or take, we all experience similar amounts of both. Sometimes, there may be big waves of positive or negative experience but we never stay stuck with just one or another. What really makes a difference is not so much what life is giving to you but how you are taking it. Be graceful and grateful in your emotional life. It's an encouraging climate for those who wish to deepen their understanding of life and themselves.
