“Why is this happening to me?”
It’s a question we all ask at some point when life throws us into unexpected storms. The weight of injustice, loss, or struggle can feel unbearable, making it hard to see beyond the pain. In these moments, our natural reaction may be resistance, frustration, or even despair. But what if, instead of fighting against life’s unfairness, we leaned into it with a different perspective—one rooted in trust, transformation, and divine wisdom?

Unfairness often feels like a personal attack, as though life is conspiring against us. But at its core, unfairness is a story we tell ourselves when we don’t understand the bigger picture. What seems like a setback may actually be a setup for something greater. The universe operates with a divine intelligence that goes beyond what our minds can immediately grasp.

Instead of asking, “Why is this happening to me?” we can shift our perspective and ask, “What is this trying to teach me?”

Life’s challenges invite us into a deeper relationship with ourselves and the Divine. When life seems unfair, we can choose to respond in ways that elevate us rather than diminish us:

Resistance amplifies suffering. Acceptance doesn’t mean agreeing with the unfairness; it means choosing peace despite it. When we accept what is, we stop fighting life and start working with it.

Every experience—especially the painful ones—has value. What you’re going through now is shaping you in ways you can’t yet see. Trust that the pain is carving out space for something meaningful to emerge.

When we feel victimized, we get stuck in the past. But when we ask “What now?” we empower ourselves to move forward with wisdom and strength. Every difficulty carries the seed of a new possibility.

Blaming others or ourselves only keeps us trapped in negativity. Instead, seek the lesson. Life’s “unfair” moments often hold deep wisdom that can guide us toward clarity, healing, and even transformation.

It may seem counterintuitive, but one of the most powerful ways to rise above unfairness is to give—your kindness, your love, your presence. When you shift from feeling powerless to offering something to the world, you reclaim your strength.

Living in Trust and Grace

The greatest freedom comes when we release our need to control how life unfolds. The Divine is always working for our highest good, even when we can’t see it yet.

"Divine Light, in moments of struggle, help me to trust the unseen. When life feels unfair, remind me that I am never alone. Guide me to embrace my journey with strength, wisdom, and love. Let me see beyond the storm to the peace that is always available within me. Amen."

Even when life feels unfair, you are never without grace. Keep going—something beautiful is being born from this.
