No, I don't think that this world is fair. In the end, there is a lot more injustice, greed, hatred, crime, and wickedness than love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, self-control, etc.
A lot of the time, I haven't gotten what I deserved. I've gotten so much more--blessings upon blessings. I, as a human, deserve eternal damnation...I don't deserve a chance in this world. but, how overwhelmingly awe-some is it that God gives us blessings anyway? things like the gifts of knowledge and learning...things like a supportive family and a network of friends...things like happiness, joy, salvation...salvation is a big one, it's not something you can earn. I am so, so grateful. to me, this salvation so real, it's so palpable and tangible--I know it's there and I bank my very existence on it.

As a Timo, I believe that I deserve the world's adoration a thousand times over. But that doesn't happen. At least not as much as it should Life really is unfair
Mallika, I love you! If you were eternally damned, that would make me sad!
