The unfair world - or is it?
Life has never been fair to me.

Little do I know it has never been for anyone.
If the term 'fair' holds meaning at all.
What do we mean by fair?
It's a fallacy.
It means a promise of happening good, for doing good. Happening wrong for doing bad.
Where exactly all unfair lies in our lives?
A person loses his hand. Now, it's unfair to him, why he has to live with one hand only, when others have both well functioning hands.
A man fears walking in street in dark, it's unfair to him, why doesn't anyone else have this fear, but only him. Why does it exist in his brain to hold back him only?
In some cases people complain about unfairness in context of unequal men/women income for same work.
Why a man can't afford a new sandal when previous one broke. While other owns a thousand shops like that.

Point of wildly loved anime named Death Note is justice.
I agreed with the villain, the bad guy, Kira.
God he was, and used to kill everyone, who wronged someone in an unfair way, via the mysterious book he found death note.
I wished it was all real. (Well, of course not really! That's just how crazier part of my brain works!)
But in the interest of dealing and understanding what we got, let's talk about the world without a death note, our world.
How can we achieve fairness?
To paraphase, Jaby Koay, a YouTuber I love watching, once said something, that hit me profoundly, "The only way to get nicer behavior from the world is to give it."
We can't control what others do or think. We can't control what we think.
We can choose what to believe.
People say your thinking decides what you are and what you do. That's really absurd.
We have a thousand thoughts, a million of them. Some of them are not even tell-able to others.
But what one believes to be true, what one chooses to be his reality is what makes the difference.
Honestly, we have ideas of fairness from ancient texts and our ancestors.
It makes sense it exists and seems so necessary in any human society. But that's there, where lies its limitation.
Life itself doesn't care about humans and the stories they make up.
Life is driven by certain laws. There are laws of gravitation and electromagnetic forces.
It means if your boss decides to promote your lazy colleague you hate over you, and signs on some papers, paper would look just like that. Promotional information of your colleague and your boss's sign on it.
Was it unfair?
Maybe in your story.
Did life conspired for you?
Definitely not. It just again abided its laws. Friction did its job well yet again in giving those words a shape on paper.
Did life feel bad about doing this?
Hell no.
That's why being practical about things help.
I'm no way suggesting you should accept or don't revolt when you feel resentment. You must stand up for yourself when needed.
You should go and talk to your boss, give him evidence if possible, and stand by your side firmly for all the hard and honest work you did.
I'm just insisting on the fact, if all of that doesn't work, nobody owes you an apology, no deity or God is out there to keep track of fairness. It doesn't exist as a concept outside of human realm.
Unfair world it is!
