I had a massive attack of it's-not-fair-itis this morning. Foolishly I stayed up way too late last night reading, which left me too tired to cope well with the crappiness of the morning. It includes the unfairness of today's solicitor bill whereby I have to work for over 3 hours to earn enough to pay for a 6 min email. Thing is, I know that it isn't fair for anyone, so many people I know have had crappy weeks this week. There have been discussions of a footballer earning a quarter of a million each week, and there are many trying to survive on less than a dollar a day. So whatever we earn it probably doesn't feel fair. Every single one of us experiences loss, grief, doubt, it is unfair for us all.
I know materialism is not the answer but I might look up fluffy fairtrade towels. All my towels are thinner and stiffer than cardboard. And tonight I will try for a much earlier night. Hope whatever unfairness you have felt today that you've taken it in your stride and not let it deflect all that is lovely.
