I believe we can all create 'fair' lives. I'm a big follower of the Law of Attraction (and Quantum Physics). I believe that we create (or select) what we focus upon in our thoughts and intentions. If I focus on good things - I create them, or select them out of the infinite stream of possibilities. If I focus on what I don't want, or negative things around me - I create, or select, more of the same negative results.

I know that my life is created by my focus.

Today I realize that all of the really , really tough times were my own personal creation. I had some pretty nasty subconscious beliefs that were driving my life toward constant crises and painful disappointment. I released the beliefs- and my world changed. Dramatically.

All the 'unfairness' in my life prior to that awakening - well, it was fair, even if it was painful. It was exactly what I was expecting - and creating. Those tough times also helped me to grow as a person, So maybe 'fair' is about what helps us to expand and grow - not about what keeps us safe and stuck in our comfort zone?

Mine is not the most popular opinion - especially when things go badly. Most of us don't want to believe that our entire lives, and the fairness or unfairness, is our own responsibility. We somehow feel compelled to blame some unfair external power or person for the challenges.

Take those acts of nature, or God.

Some point to Haiti or 9/11 or other disasters and say life isn't fair. But how do we know that?

What if all the people who weren't' in the towers, even though they should have been - demonstrate that life is more fair than we want to admit? What if all the people who survived the earthquake for days in Haiti show that life is fair even in a crisis? What if in the big picture balance - the survivors and those who avoided death make our world more than fair?

Here's the hardest part. We'll never really know what all the folks involved in 'disasters' were creating. It's not ours to say. I certainly am NOT saying that terror attacks and earthquakes are fair. Anything but.

But do those horrific natural and human events mean life overall isn't fair? What if they are part of the balance across all our thinking, or our own subconscious and individual creations joining together? I know, that's a hard one to fathom, but we understand so little about our existence. What if we're responsible?

We make the choice for fairness - or not.

I believe life is meant to be filled with joyful abundance for all of us. I also believe that we get in our own way, focusing on the negative and the lack and the fearful horrors. That focus creates things that are painful. I spent decades of my life creating unpleasant experiences for myself. Once I learned that I was responsible for those experiences - I changed my thoughts and everything changed!

When we shift our attitudes toward the positive, we create positive lives.

We can create abundance and prosperity. We just can't fall prey to the collective consciousness and the dark side of the force. I've lived on both sides - and I can tell you that simple focus on positive expectations can make life 'fair'. Even the unpleasant things can be fair, growth giving experiences - it's all in how we see them.

As for acts of Nature - well, only our higher power knows about those. But I still do believe there's a reason for all things. I also believe that each of us has more control than we like to admit - like whether we're in the right place at the right time, or the wrong place at the wrong time.

I know, that's not a factual answer to the question "Is Life Fair?" But it's my answer - straight from the heart.
