1. 'Fair' has only one degree (theoretically speaking). 'Unfair' has many. Some are just treated worse by life than others.
2. It is hard to think of the injustices others have suffered when you are a victim (in any circumstance). Take the following 3 situations: a. Your life is in danger. b. Your career went down the drain due to some small mistake you did(known to happen to people). c. Some drunk driver crashed into your car.
Will you feel it is ok because these have happened to someone else also or will you feel wronged?
There is nothing called 'fair'. Everything is relative...to you. And lots of times that doesn't hold good either.
