The majority of the population agrees that life should be fair \u2013 but that doesn\u2019t seem to matter. There is no mandate that says life should be far, even though you and I would like it to be. So, with most people agreeing that life is supposed to be fair, why isn\u2019t it?<\/p>\n
The first thing to do is set aside some of our preconceptions so that we can develop a clearer picture. Ideals like: Rich vs. Poor; Pretty or Not; Race or Nationality; Privileged or Under-Privileged; Young or Old; Religion or Atheism are boundaries that people often use when they compare themselves with others. Most people use these as reasons or excuses to justify why someone is or isn\u2019t worthy of being treated fairly (among other things).<\/p>\n
If we are looking at fairness<\/strong>, shouldn\u2019t equality be bought into the equation?<\/p>\n Let\u2019s take this one step further. Imagine you are walking down the street and are approached by a person wearing ripped and dirty clothing, maybe they have a bad odour, and they may be unclean. The person enters your personal space and asks \u201cDo you have the time?\u201d How would you react? Would you treat that person the same as every other new person you meet? What assumptions have you made before the person has even opened their mouth to ask you a question<\/p>\n In the world we live in today, with the economy rather out of control, World Governments taking unprecedented steps to save their ASSets\u2026 That same person may have been one of yesterdays ‘haves’, but today that person has nothing but themselves and the rags on their back. This is occurring globally and we need to look at another form of assessment before passing judgments.<\/p>\n What would happen if we simply erased the differences? What would we be left with and would it be easier to be fair to others? Fairness has to start somewhere and it starts with you! Fairness is the enactment of the \u2018Golden Rule<\/strong>\u2019: \u201d Why should someone else treat you fairly, if you haven\u2019t treated them fairly, first?\u201d<\/p>\n In doing this exercise, of erasing the differences, you are creating the images of what a world with all inequities removed. You have just created a Mental Photograph<\/a><\/strong> of what life would be like if all unfairness would be erased. Mental Photography<\/a><\/strong> creates a very strong relationship between the conscious and the subconscious – i.e., it is a transfer of concentrated information to the long term memory<\/strong> which utilizes the eidetic memory<\/strong>, or photographic memory<\/strong>.<\/p>\nThe Unfair World<\/h3>\n
