Thank you. This matches my research on it a while back. I hate that people act like hardship is always something a person brings upon themselves. We all know so many people who work their butts off and have little to nothing to show for it and people who just coats by and good things just fall in their lap. Life is NOT fair. We tell our kids to not expect life to be fair, but we teach them that it really is and if something isn’t going the way you want it to, it must be your fault.
